I just set my self up today. With the 10 million draw and higher oil futures I thought we would really rock today. Should of known better. Also, if this sector is worried about a 1/4 to 1/2 point rise in rates, maybe I am in the wrong sector as well. A 1/4 to 1/2 point rise doesn't seem to be bothering the bond today... Rory

TBI vs MAVK? I was just comparing MAVK and TBI and TBI seems like the better bet, but I now have positions in both. I like TBI a little better technically. It's also cheaper based on forward earnings and is twice the size of MAVK. However, the volume is very low on TBI which I don't like. I think it may take MAVK a little longer to get their new plant up and running than originally planned. TBI's debt was recently upgraded by S&P to stable from negative. biz.yahoo.com Opinions? I'm new to this area of the oil sector.
