SLB/HAL looking very attractive. I'm in. GLM might dip a bit more but I jumped in anyway (8.750 on Wed.). Also might keep an eye for the bottom on BO.

From theStreet.com: Halliburton (HAL:NYSE) said it plans to take a fourth-quarter after-tax charge of $24 million, or 5 cents a share, to cover 2,750 additional job cuts in its energy services group. The oil-services giant cited low crude oil prices and customers' plans to cut spending in 1999. Halliburton expects to report net fourth-quarter earnings of 14 cents to 16 cents a share, including the charge and costs related to project losses. The 22-analyst First Call estimate calls for operating earnings of 36 cents a share vs. the year-ago 58 cents.
