Q: This offshore drilling company (Transocean) stock price has increased 111% over the past 12 months.

Many rigs are still on previous leases at much lower prices/day rates than the current new leases being executed.

Assuming rig count stays the same (does not increase like it did in 2022), but expiring leases renew at recent rates with existing or new customers, what is the fundamental outlook for the next 3 years or so (approximately)?

The stock price has been very volatile...$0.81 in October of 2020, $84 in 2011, and currently at $7. Trying to get a better grasp on the fundamentals here in the above scenario that should translate to the stock price...

Q: Is it worth adding to CPG at the moment? What improvements are possible for CPG in the next 1 to 2 years?

The context for this question is a family member who holds CPG, currently less than 1% of their portfolio and 76% below their book value.

Perhaps it would be better to take the capital loss.

Thanks.
