FGH delay ? Well, I sold my "trading" position fwiw

Delays are traditionally NOT good news.

Imo, not wanting to start a spamorama food fight with "you know who" - the germane keywords & phrase was:

"allow a more detailed discussion"

... as in - "they are expecting quite a bit of questioning - probably the accounting issues, goodwill - charges etc.

Quality of earnings is also the issue in the keeping their earlier projected earnings estimates - they marked "UP" to market so to speak their HLX contracts etc.

I'm out - too many other buys off of this retrace - I was hoping to get a pop to $7's-$8ish on the positive anticipation of what JL might have to say, or release.

Imo - there will NOT be any significant good news - just the same ole re-hash; and from this release - they are expecting plenty of questions.

The stocks behavior in this price range - after JL's "all clear" - is NOT bullish imo...

I'm out - and going to better risk vs. reward plays with ramping fundies

I love OXY here - that huge option bet - the new acquisition - their prior mo support in the low $20's in Jan etc and I love P with their Arco acquisition - this has now made them an monster earnings machine AND a plum to be acquired by yet another Major.

UPR & BSNX each will break up 40%ish imo - these I will build margin postions in here for 2:1, or 80% type of trading returns - they will bring home the bacon - bank on it.

HAL here - is a must add, own, PGO a gift - look at that gap to VTS here - it will be closed substantially. Adding drillers GLM & FLC here on weakness - plenty of upside to these two laggards. DO close again - near $30 grab it in siZe.

re: FGH - Too many other plays here to "gamble" on what the institutions will do off of this delay which is pointing to an acknowledged expectation of lots of questions imo...

PS - yes ! those financials did break up a bit didn't they !

FBF is another winner - great foundation stock.
