$Ecopetrol (EC.US)$ - two board members have quit following the company's decision to pull out of a $3.6B deal to buy a stake in Texas shale assets from Occidental..
The deal was "fundamental" to the Colombian company's future, and its finances will deteriorate without the resources it would have provided, the two members reportedly wrote in their resignation letter.

I admit I bought $Ecopetrol (EC.US)$ before conducting proper analysis. I just based on dividend yield, PE and the industry.
If the market agreed with me, this Colombian national petroleum company listed on NYSE (Petronas equivalent in Malaysia) would have increased in price, but it didn't.
Turns out that while this counter is considered undervalued, it is also a value trap because the EPS and other profit indicators dropped compared to 2023.
But, luck may be on my side...

Bees Knees : Same, I started my investment journey a couple of months ago and its not been easy! While the price is down right now it has a lengthy history so there is some future to be had. I don't think its a quick turnover, but I think staying put will offer some good returns

Space Dust : i have spent substantial time digging into the dynamics of the company as dividends are becoming more popular choices.
so far, according to others, the leftist leader of Colombia has really been an issue with EC..

short sighted mentality, as the cash cow can only be slaughtered once .
and it provides the and .
so, milk it as much as possible..
when dividend time comes, putting his hand in there , and
" giving to the poor" and then..
you KNOW, he thinks," welp,nice dividend , how can we take 1/3 of that.. the " rich " are greedy and should be satisfied with less .

CNNT OP Bees Knees : Ya, I have to agree on principle. But first, we have to drown out the noise and curb that short-term opportunitic urge. I set out to reap long term benefits but was tempted to explore all the exciting shiny things and got lost a bit. But still, in the early days in the journey, let's not make the same mistakes over and over.

CNNT OP Space Dust : I guess you are right at a philosophical level and it could play out that way, so its something we should ve keenly aware of. But what bugs me is some of the unhealthy financial numbers, suggesting the company is not well run. So while promising, I won't hold too much of such stocks.

$Ecopetrol (EC.US)$ hearing oil will go higher than 100/barrel, but if Trump wins i see oil eventually going down since Biden is anti oil and drilling.
