how so?

oil goes down, big O&G companies aren't making big profits anymore. They don't make big profits, they don't keep expanding. They don't expand, contractors don't have as much work to do since projects are getting cancelled. Other local companies that sell equipment to O&G companies don't have new infrastructure to sell more equipment like valves, pumps, hvac, compressors, motors, seals, pipe, etc.

$30 Billion in new industrial work on the books for LA. Add to that the infrastructure, housing, retail, etc that goes along with that.

The market is looking up.
