Providian (a very profitable dabum name) is delaying their earnings announcement. Out to the woodshed with you - may be a trade in the making.

MIRANT CEO SAYS SHE'S DISAPPOINTED WITH PROGRESS IN RATINGS TALKS Source: EnergyNewsLive Feb 06 08:17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mirant Corp's CEO says she's disappointed with the progress made in talks with Moody's Investors Service about restoring the company's investment-grade credit rating. December 19, Moody's cut about $4.9 billion of the independent power producers' debt to 'Ba1', its highest junk rating, in what CEO Marce Fuller describes as a "sudden and unexpected" move. December 20th, Standard and Poor's affirmed the company's rating of 'BBB-', its lowest investment grade. Fuller says the restoration situation with Moody's is a work in progress, and is disappointed with the progress they've made. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Comment: "sudden and unexpected"??? She sounds like an idiot not to understand the implications of the ENE fallout.
