GLM's CEO Rose warned of declining dayrate and wanted analysts to lower estimate for next year. He said he thinks oil will return to $19 next year but only if we have a very cold winter. Story in Bloomberg.

Steve - Re: HD Who knows? Seems to have a tough time getting back above 44, whereas other retail guys have moved back up (WMT, BBY). Seems like lots of folks selling out - maybe stock moved too high with the split mania. I hope to have the stock pop to 47-48 on earnings and then fade back to this level or a little lower (42.5 strike?). If earnings are not great, 37.5 or 40 by next friday. I've been following this thread all along - you folks have built a great thread. What's your take on HD. Bought puts this morning on WMT. Hoping for this stock to slide a little by friday; i will then buy calls. Mike
