Irregularities in the Oil Markets

Seasoned traders have warned against this, claiming that the company’s small size does not justify its net asset value per share. However, retail investors caught up in the social media frenzy surrounding the stock are less concerned with technical feasibilities, and more so with immediate swings with the stock. The substantial trade volume is an indicator of this hype, with most traders betting on the oil market irregularities amidst the Ukraine crisis to deliver ample gains.
