I have a question concerning why GLM has so much more liquidity than DO and RIG. From what I have read of the posts here DO and to some extent RIG are better positioned in terms of rigs, debt, cash position than GLM, but GLM has a lot more trading volume than both and gets a lot more attention in posts (this message board is much more active than DO and same is true on Yahoo's board - not this is meant to suggest anything specific, but I wonder why so many people are more interested in GLM than DO or RIG. GLM's average volume is 2.7 M vs 1.4 for RIG and 1m for DO. I feel that I am missing something here and would like to know. Thanks in advance, Don
