Glen's post hit the nail on the head. The analyst's reduction only brought his numbers more inline with the concensus numbers. This will introduce a slight skewing in the new mean numbers but nowhere as much as the percentage decline the analyst was predicting. It will be interesting to see if there is any follow reductions by other analysts in the next few days. I am sitting pat until I hear otherwise. BTW, it's probably meaningless, but TDW should have some support around $47/share. Also, I remember reading just a few days ago that the sale of their compression business would add ~ $1.06/share to their March quarter. Granted, a one-time gain, but still nice. Thanks, Tony D.
