my trading account gets funded with a relatively small amount of money tonight. lol

Lets see if I can do some damage. Technical traders expecting pull back on the S&P if it cant bust 1004 tomorrow. ,,, seems like good logic to me considering how big of a run up its had.

14:30 PM ET Petrohawk Energy beats by $0.05, misses on revs



"This quarter, our operations in two prominent U.S. shale plays, the Haynesville and Eagle Ford Shales, made key strides in further establishing productive areas and achieving operational efficiencies. Operational improvements have resulted in lower average costs per well and higher initial production rates which we believe will lead to increased returns on investment," said Floyd C. Wilson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Petrohawk's operating staff has achieved these efficiencies early in the development of these plays with great success. Additionally, we are keeping pace with infrastructure requirements as we continue to work marketing channels to sell gas at the best available prices.

"We continue to be fiscally conservative, expanding our portfolio of hedges into 2011. Based on the combined effect of strong quarterly performance and positive hedge positions, we stand in an excellent position to continue our exciting pace of production and reserve growth."

Whatever happened to your prediction of FAZ at 37 by August? Because of reverse split it should have now been at 370

How much did you sell FAZ for?

Wedbush Morgan initiates MU with a Outperform and price target of $8.50 saying they recommend investors' buy shares of Micron as they expect continued Q/Q improvement to gross margin, earnings and revenue due to recovery of DRAM industry and its transition to DDR3, cost reductions in NAND flash to outpace ASP per MB declines in 2H of CY:09E; and sale of Aptina unlocking incremental leverage to the model.
