Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
Magnolia Petroleum (MAGP) used to be a bit of a Bulletin Board darling as its shares soared to 6p plus.

Think you are missing something here, Magnolia is not trying to be an oil producer. It is trying to acquire leases on the cheap, prove them up and sell them on.
