I have been watching this NGX stock and after researching on NAHCO's business, industry and financials, I believe the recent pullback presents an attractive long-term buying opportunity for me.

Here's my investment thesis overview on why I'm buying the retracement.

NFA. DYOR. https://t.co/4R4kOcdQxV https://t.co/kSMVYNK7bW

You put your girlfriend on a ₦200k monthly allowance for the last 5 years.

There’s nothing wrong with that.

Now imagine you also put your future self on a ₦200k monthly allowance since 5 years.

Every month, you invested ₦200k equally into Aradel, GTCO, Presco, and MTNN.

I'm not sure anyone is interested but I did business analysis of some ngx companies using framework from prof penman, I'm currently studying.

Business analysis is the first step in fundamental analysis.

NGX alone may still be viable depending on the valuation and structure.

5) Likely. An oil major is usually valued more for cash flows and dividends than high-growth expectations, although future expansion can affect valuation.

@anthonyuzum In 2008, I sold over 90% of my portfolio and forgot about the rest, until 2024 when I returned with the GTCO P.O. In March 2025, I began buying again, 1000 units here, 2000 there. It wasn't until August that I went in fully. I look at my portfolio and I wish I returned earlier.
