Saturday's WSJ has a small article entitled: "McClendon Venture to Go Public.
Aubrey has files for up to $ 2 Billion, 100 million units at $20.00.
Will you follow this? Do we trust him?

December 15th, 2013 at 2:30 pmZ; any good ideas for propylene supply and price info?? I am experimenting with various trade publications (none free or cheap) and I noticed on EIA website propylene is pooled with propane data onthe supply side. The inspiration for this is the mlp Petrologistics LP (PDH); The LP asset is a propane to propylene conversion facility; Propane goes in; propylene goes out; at least a simple business model. and with a little more effort understanding capex requirements and being able to track cash margins should make this one of this stocks that can be owned/traded on a discounted cash flow basis. So easy; right?? Bottomline for me; just making sure I can model distributable cash flow at different margin levels should be at least produce a price where on an infomred basis someone can take a swing as a long term owner of the shares. As always appreciate your experitse and discussions; By the way; The Frackers by Greg Zuckerman provides an easy to read story of several key figures and companies in different shale plays. Novices to these names should read just for basic familiarity.
December 15th, 2013 at 2:31 pmNy the NOG presentation very helpful. Thanks
December 15th, 2013 at 2:32 pmre 4 – unfortunately no but have not looked in awhile, will snoop about. Seems like such a plant now should be a license to steal given propane supply, inventories, and despite recent move in prices. Thanks for the headsup.
December 15th, 2013 at 2:34 pmIt would seem like it; but then the chart tells me I am clueless on some particulars.
December 15th, 2013 at 2:36 pmre 7 – sort of looks inverted to propane price chart in the post the other day, no?
December 15th, 2013 at 2:37 pmPDH; strikes me as something like my rental house; except the rent changes daily. Capex should be easy to model barring the uncertainties of outlier events. I f I find something useful I will post; hoping someone smarter and more experienced has a quick answer to share. Just think if we see real expansion of production in South Texas and Louisiana of more complex derivatives? This should work.
December 15th, 2013 at 2:39 pmRe 8- agree
December 15th, 2013 at 2:40 pmNow planning to have a look, thanks.
