Yes I am a SDRL owner w/ my last sale on the announcement of CH 11. The lesson is any company w/ that much debt can fall into BK if industry falls into a cycle down event. That's why I keep any one portfolio position less than 2%. Looking forward, I focus on total debt of the company. BGS has a large amount of debt almost 2x that of GIS. You have to take the bad w/ the good and hopefully always learn something from a company 'blow-up'. I have my battle scars but still am growing the portfolio(s). EKS
