Jurgis - I didn't say sell RIG, I have never owned it so i can't sell - I was just contemplating possibilities. The stock had a terrific run and still trades at 2x tangible book, so it trades on earnings power rather than replacement value. I believe there will be consequences for drilling in the Gulf which will affect dayrates, probably dramatically. So RIG's earnings power could suffer much more to than BP's. Buyers need to take that into account.

My inclination would be to buy another driller that suffers collateral damage (NE).
