This does seem to be an across the board correction that is occurring [well, duh]...I've been day-trading these stocks for the past year, and this works as far as locking-in profits as you go forward. Unfortunately, it also bought me the big weenie..since I thought that I was buying RIG yesterday on merely a "dip". Sold for a pretty substantial loss on this round, but the longer picture should still get better and opportunities will arise to make up today's loss. I still don't have the nerve to short this sector, as 24 hrs. could bring a dramatic turnaround, too...Margin trading has its rewards and retributions...another day, another driller!
