RIG started asOutperform ($35 tgt) by Morgan Stanley biz.yahoo.com Thursday May 20, 8:42 am Eastern Time Morgan Stanley Starts Transocean Offshore at Outperform, $35 Target ...hmmmmmm ? Are they covering their ''ass'' by making it only an ''outperform'' - but pumping, or ( pimping) the price by dangling that $35 price target out there for us ? - let us run it up (support it) while they (Institutions) sell it off..... ????????? I'll just sit at $21 3/8ths and $18 7/8ths .... I don't trust the dirty SOB's ....{SOB}. Devon - Penzoil ---- PZE sold out toooooooooo cheap imho ! $31.50 x .4475 = $14.10 per share ?????????????????????? Devon made one hell of a buy here - buy DEVON for a longterm hold - no real large nearterm upside; but DEVON sits on a nice portfolio and is solid as a rock. A solid longterm play.... PZE sharelholders have to be pisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssed imho. I would NOT bring up the old UPR offer to any PZE holders... (I'm holding a bit in the longterm drawer....)
