Yes, I noticed the pressure on FGII seemed to ease almost immediately after I posted. In light of the last two days, I'm thinking someone wanted out badly. I hope the ease in pressure indicates they are out by now, but I have no way of knowing.

Maybe Holloway stepped up to buy all the shares for sale. <g> If he has access to big bucks, he should take the company private again and re-list next year. Oh, I forgot, credit crunch. No MBO's today.

I think SLB's silence is weighing heavily on the sector. They haven't warned, but nobody believes they haven't felt the impact of crude prices.
