RE: CDG's $3 drop.....

We have had numerous day to day swings in crude oil prices at today's levels and did not get a $3 CDG sell off or an OSX loss like today.The day to day swings of crude prices obviously are still (at least for now...) a proxy for this sectors prices. But there was not major news to a degree to impact the losses seen today, imho. My feelings were that it was more off of the SLB earnings release and a general rotation out of the sector by some fund managers as indicated by the big block on CDG mentioned earlier.

All week I heard comments on how SLB's release would set a tone, either good or bad for the sector. While SLB showed decent year over year increases and met estimates; the street didn't see or hear what they wanted... or maybe as mentioned the API numbers coming are not good news...?
