BD: Remember, analysts usually save their best and/or most personal questions for post CC phone calls. A good analyst doesn't want to look good on the call.

<<I guarantee you that people on this board ask much more probing and valuable questions than ANY of the analysts asked on that call.>>

Probably because we have money riding on these companies. The analysts just have to show up to get paid.

Big,
Looks like FGI's big seller is still at it. Ask 5 times the bid.

Any idea why HLX is trading at a big discount to its merger value? I would expect a little but at 6 15/16, it is about 11% below its current exchange value of 7.81 (FGI's close of 16 15/16 * .4614). With the honchos playing kissy-face and the top jobs doled out, it seems likely to go ahead barring anti-trust problems. HLX looked like the better play so I grabbed some at the close. BWDIK.
