Q: Hi Peter,
can you give me your thoughts on Doxa Energy, DXA. Its market cap is around 4 million, yet, based on its latest presentation, its land value alone on its Mississippian oil play is worth $0.28/share on fully diluted shares and 0.45/share on floating shares. This excludes all other property and the revenue it receives of $213,000/mth (net of taxes but not operating expenses). Is this a major miss-price in this company or is there more than meets the eye. Also based on the Average Sandridge NPV per well (as reported), the NAV potential of Doxa for this Mississippi play alone is $93MM for a cash flow company with a current market cap of just over $4MM. I asked management about the debt and they said all debt is unsecured and is supplied by shareholders and affiliates including the President and Chairman of Doxa, not financial institutions. In addition, the latest S&P Report of June 2nd shows their EPS is now positive 0.01/share along with growing revenue each quarter. So, its mind boggling to me why its trading at $0.12/share.

Q: I can't figure out why Japanese bonds are yield 1%. My understanding of Japan is financially it is in worse shape than Spain, Italy etc. and their future is very bleak as to demographics. Is it because they can fund it within the country? How can the yen be a safe haven?

Thanks
