I like ALJ, ATW, and ETE at these prices...and of course MRO.

You've been a big MRO fan for a long time now. What has drawn you to them?

There's nothing scary about them and it's $10 per share. They have plenty of cash, and a solid, but not an alarmingly high dividend.
I've watched this stock since $42 and I made an entry at $14.77--I stand by that entry, but might add more shortly if I get the cash.

ALJ intrigued me after travelling to Colorado last summer. It's a small refiner that was $18 when I got home last August...now it's at $10.00

Which one of you called Cramer regarding ETE and Williams deal?

I was very tempted to jump in at $8 but held off thinking oil had a lot more suffering to do. I hope I get another crack around that level

Can you explain what this means and how it impacts oil stocks.

Are you talking about total rigs that are in the gulf? Producing?

The rig count refers to drilling rigs drilling new wells. He is probably referring to the US rig count, which is both onshore and offshore.

So wouldn't the rig count going down increase price due to less production?

Sorry if that's a stupid question.

Yes, in theory it will since less wells being drilled means less production in the future. A well that gets drilled doesn't suddenly come online and start producing so production is a lagging indicator of rig count. The dropping rig count shows that operators aren't willing or able to put capital into drilling new wells, whether they be exploration or development at this point in time. Over time currently producing wells will deplete and supply will fall.

I mean in the long run it could, but the amount of rigs drilling is a direct indicator of the current state of the industry.

This is the bottom line right now.

about a month ago I bought in on 6 oil companies...quickly made 15K (on that crazy upswing week) , but now it's coming back down to reality, however I'm going in long so I'm holding for 5 years and we'll see.
