@JohnHuber72 I believe $NRP's production jump in Appalachia was primary due to $ARLP's Tunnel Ridge mine, which should be a stable producer going forward.

@GardinerIsland $BSM has kinda muffled volatility relatively speaking if you don't mind a K-1, have a pretty good plan to grow production on their land next ~5 yrs (they own royalty interests), systematically hedge ~75% of production.

Pershing Square trades near 50 times estimated earnings, with $21 billion of fee-paying AUM against a $13 billion equity value and potential post-lockup selling pressure.

Seems like $PSUS and $PS going to trade worse than I expected. Looks like PSUS could open at a 20% discount to NAV and PS to trade below the $10 bn valuation from the latest 3rd party pre-IPO raise. https://t.co/Ix6uqF61LJ https://t.co/F5UNDNNVMb

@EricTheUmpire If you want exposure, buy $PSH.LN (or $PSHZF) which is trading at around 70% of NAV (implies $35/share for $PSUS). https://t.co/oSFLPLfnqr
