FIDSON
Down by 17% from its previous ATH
Playing accordingly......... Read the detailed analysis. But I will reiterate: Only two levels I am looking at
1. The N105.3/share level
and
2. Failure for the bulls to hold option 1, the demand zone of N93-N95.4 per share will be a sweet zone to load with good confirmations

If you had bought 1m worth of Presco shares in 2020, on the 9th of June 2020. Your shares if you never sold would now be worth 50.8m naira, and you would have received a dividend of 2.5m over the past 6 years.
Well you didn’t know better, so you bought iPhone 12 Pro Max, Apple EarPods and Apple Watch. 🙂🙂🙂.
(PS: My mentor bought his Presco in 2008)
1 million units in 2020 was 3.1m naira.
Today that same 1m unit is worth 122m naira.
By 2030, it could be worth as high as 500m naira.
I know deep inside you are saying why didn’t anyone mention this in 2020, well now I’m saying it in 2026.
When a company keeps growing revenues, keeps churning out profits, and delivering consistent dividends year after year, you should probably own a piece of this company.
Assemble 5-10 of such companies, hold and continue to invest as much as you can and let time help you with the rest.
On the 8th of June 2020, if you had invested 500k in Vitafoam Nigeria, 6 years after today.
Your 500k would be worth 20.4m naira. But yeah you had to wait 6 years.
While
500k invested in Presco same date in 2020 would be worth 25.4m now.
Remember it was not built in 2 weeks or 2 months, that’s 6 years stretch.

🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: The economist who predicted the last three World Cup winners now predicts the Netherlands to win the 2026 tournament! 🇳🇱🏆
• A German economist named Joachim Klement built a statistical model from scratch in 2014 that has correctly called every World Cup champion since.
• After nailing Germany in 2014, France in 2018 and Argentina in 2022, his system now forecasts the Netherlands as the unlikely 2026 champion.
• Klement’s model weighs factors like population size, GDP per capita, FIFA ranking, climate and socioeconomic elements.
• He openly admits the math only explains around 50% of the outcome, with the other half coming down to pure luck.
• The whole thing started as a joke to mock mathematicians who think they can predict everything with numbers.
• According to the projections, the Dutch will knock out France in the quarter-finals, Spain in the semis and Portugal in the final.
• The model also has Brazil crashing out in the round of 16 against Japan.
Most people buying ARADEL on the NGX don't fully understand what they actually own.
You are not buying a single oil company. You are buying into an entire group. Let me break it down
WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES
Aradel Energy Limited
→ The core E&P operating arm. Upstream production, field operations, reserve development. This is where the barrels come from.
Aradel Gas Limited
→ Gas monetisation vehicle. Nigeria's gas transition is a multi-decade story — Aradel has a dedicated subsidiary positioned for it.
Aradel Refineries Limited
→ In-house refinery capacity with a full-time GM in senior management. As Dangote Refinery reshapes Nigerian downstream, Aradel is building its own refining position quietly.
Aradel Investments Limited
→ The group's capital allocation and investment vehicle. Manages intra-group funding and financial assets.
STRATEGIC AFFILIATES & JVs
ND Western Limited
→ Aradel's MD/CEO sits as NED representing Aradel. ND Western holds producing OML acreage in the Niger Delta. Real barrels flowing today.
Renaissance Africa Energy Company Limited (Nigeria)
→ Part of the consortium that acquired Shell's OML 30 — one of Nigeria's biggest ever onshore E&P transactions. Aradel is embedded at board level.
Renaissance Africa Energy Holdings Ltd (BVI)
→ The offshore holding structure for the OML 30 consortium. Aradel's MD/CEO sits on the board. This is the international capital wrapper for a generational asset acquisition.
Consolidated Hallmark Insurance Plc (NGX: CHIPLC)
→ Aradel's CFO sits as NED representing Aradel Holdings. This means Aradel holds a strategic equity stake in a listed insurer
INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
South Sudan Operations
→ A dedicated General Manager runs live E&P operations in South Sudan. Aradel has boots on the ground in East Africa. Most people have no idea.
One share of ARADEL = E&P (Nigeria + South Sudan) + gas monetisation + in-house refining + a listed insurance stake + board-level exposure to OML 30 via Renaissance Africa.
That is not a single-asset oil stock. Price it accordingly.

I hit rock bottom after squandering all my savings in reckless financial decisions.
The advice I'll give:
1. Go home. Could be your actual home or wherever feels like home.
2. Eat all you can. Just survive first.
3. Run to a company of men, you'll see that your story isn't unique. My cousin, Chuka, really came through for me and other close friends. Can never forget but I had to open up.
4. Read the book, "Man's Search for Meaning" to put your 'suffering' in context.
5. Pray a prayer of Thanksgiving. Especially if your rock bottom didn't come with a sickness or disease, you can't thank God enough. Just stay grateful without asking for anything for like 4 weeks straight.
6. Know that rebuilding is part of the process and take each day at a time.
Still recovering but the above really helped me.
📊 Top 10 NGX Market Cap Update
ARADEL sheds roughly ₦800bn in market value, while WAPCO climbs above ZENITHBANK in the market cap rankings.
🔻 ARADEL: ₦8.4T → ₦7.6T
• Biggest mover of the day
• About ₦800bn erased from market cap
🔼 WAPCO: ₦4.96T → ₦5.15T
• Moves up to #8
🔽 ZENITHBANK: #8 → #9
• Market cap remains around ₦5.13T
🔼 GTCO: ₦4.88T → ₦4.93T
• Adds about ₦50bn in market value
No changes in the Top 7. The action was further down the table today.
I have made too many mistakes in my investment journey.
Last November/December there was a dip. Everything was basically on sale. I bought a lot of Zenith Bank between 55-58 per share and eventually ran out of fresh funds.
Where I got it wrong was that I started selling some of my other holdings to fund whatever stock was moving at the time.
There's a certain euphoria that comes with buying and selling, but don't be deceived, most times you're only killing compounding and enriching your broker.
If there's a dip and you don't have fresh funds to buy, there is no need to keep logging into your brokerage account every minute.
Not every opportunity is meant to be taken.
Around January, I sold 2,500 units of MTNN at ₦570 because I thought it couldn't go any higher. Today, that decision looks very different.
One lesson I've learned is this:
If you're investing for the long term, let your investments relax and work for you, not against you. Sometimes the best thing to do is absolutely nothing.
