		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this year, the energy sector, specifically in the oil space, was one of the more popular segments in the market. Crude oil was surging and any company related to this sector was on the rise as a result. However, recent events have made many investors pause when it comes to investing in the space. Many European countries are already in a recession while there are concerns building over the health of not only the American market, but the pace of growth in Asian nations as well. Yet despite these worries, the space could be promising for a long term, or even medium term outlook. This is especially true when one takes a closer look at the oil equipment space in particular.

We will have representation from the who’s who of the corporate world, with a number of bellwether players on tap to come out with results. By the end of the week, we will have a good enough number to judge this earnings season. While earnings will remain the primary focus during the week, we have a number of market-moving economic releases on deck as well. We will get a sense of the consumer economy though the monthly Retail Sales numbers, while the Industrial Production report will give us a good read on the manufacturing sector.

		<description><![CDATA[Benchmarks struggled to find definite direction yesterday as the lack of news left them swinging between small gains and losses. By the closing bell, the energy sector had dented the S&#38;P 500, while investors’ apprehensions about Hewlett-Packard’s decision of merging its printing and personal computing businesses dragged down the Dow. However, tech shares boosted the Nasdaq into the positive zone. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) dropped 0.3% to settle at 13,124.62. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) edged down 0.2% to finish yesterday’s trading session at 1,402.89. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index was the only gainer among the other benchmarks and moved up by 0.04% to settle at 3,075.32. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) was down 2.9% and finished at 15.13. Total volumes on the New York ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Encouraging domestic economic data and the massive monetary injection by the European Central Bank (ECB) lifted the benchmarks modestly higher on Thursday. The day was somewhat marred by dismal economic data and news of explosion on an unknown Saudi oil pipeline. However, investors preferred the positives and the markets did finish in the green though it came down from its day’s highs. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) gained 0.2% and closed at 12,980.30. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) moved up 0.6% to finish yesterday’s trading session at 1,374.09. The tech-laden Composite Index enjoyed strong gains of 0.7% and settled at 2,988.97. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) plunged 6.4% and settled at 17.26.

		<description><![CDATA[Domestic housing data, which came in better-than-expected, combined with a drop in crude prices, helped the markets close narrowly higher on Monday. The S&#38;P 500 hit its highest level since pre-recessionary days in May 2008 as it touched an intra-day high of 1,370.89. However, the Dow dropped marginally, prevented investors from seeing it settle above 13, 000. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) closed merely 0.01% lower at 12,981.51. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) edged up 0.1% and closed narrowly higher at 1,367.59. The Nasdaq Composite Index gained 0.1% and closed yesterday’s trading session at 2,966.16.

		<description><![CDATA[In May 2008 a call from a major brokerage was heard round the world. It was the “super spike” in the price of oil which called for prices to dramatically increase from the $115 level to an unthinkable $150-$200 a barrel. This call came from the same analyst that three years earlier saw $100 barrel crude when sweet Texas tea was hovering close to $60. The earlier call was also a somewhat unthinkable prospect. Recently, we got another call from the same brokerage… just a different analyst this time. The call isn’t quite the same, but the idea is. Oil prices are expected to move higher. We will leave the details of Iran or supply and demand out of this discussion and focus on how we can best position our ]]></description>

Google’s (GOOG) earnings miss potentially raises doubts about the tech sector’s earnings outlook, but the issue appears to be mostly company specific.

But with stocks at a six-month high already, it will likely be difficult today to sustain the upward drift of recent days.

		<description><![CDATA[The fact that the US unemployment rate has dropped to its lowest level since February 2009 failed to spark a rally on Friday. European concerns weighed on sentiment to drag the benchmarks marginally lower. However, the first week of 2012 ended on a positive note amidst a slew of encouraging economic reports, On Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) dropped 0.5% to close the day at 12,359.92. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was down 0.3% and closed Friday’s trading session at 1,277.81. However, the tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index registered gains of 0.2% and finished at 2,674.22. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) reflected subdued fears, dropping almost 4% to close at 20.63. Consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq and Amex were roughly 6.3 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not all the important news is centered on Greece and Italy. The International Energy Agency, or IEA, this week released its World Energy Outlook. The IEA is not some wild-eyed &#8220;peak oil/global warming&#8221; fringe group. They are about as mainstream and staid a group as you are going to find. The bullet points below come from the fact sheet associated with the report (see here). I comment on the implications, particularly the investment implications after each bullet point. Major events of the last year have had an impact on short- and medium-term energy trends, but have done little to quench the world’s increasing thirst for energy in the long term. The level and pattern of energy use worldwide varies markedly across the three scenarios in this year’s World Energy Outlook ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Houston, Texas-based Schlumberger Limited (SLB)’s local branch secured the right to drill a mature oil field offered by Mexico’s state oil monopoly Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) after the original winner – Mexican concern Administradora en Proyectos de Campos – failed to comply with the legal formalities of the contract and did not furnish the required financial backing for the project. The contract to extract oil from the Carrizo field was given to Schlumberger as it was the bidder with the second lowest bid in the public tender process held in August. Schlumberger will charge $9.40 per barrel of oil for the onshore field which is lower than Pemex ceiling price of $12.31. The terms of the original tender remains unchanged. The contract, which is Pemex’ one of the first incentive-based proposal ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OUTLOOK Crude Oil Mounting worries about Europe&#8217;s debt crisis, a persistently weak U.S. jobs market and less-than-encouraging guidance from the Federal Reserve have been weighing on investor sentiment, weakening oil prices to around $85 a barrel. Apprehensions about high U.S. crude stocks, the release of emergency oil supplies from government-held strategic reserves into the world market, and uncertainty over oil supply disruptions in the Middle East have added to the negative sentiment. These issues have stoked fears about the demand outlook for oil that has seen the commodity’s price plummet to 12-month lows earlier in the month. Incidentally, crude prices zoomed past the $110 per barrel level during the first half of the year. As per the latest release by the Energy Information Administration (EIA), which provides official energy statistics ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The political deadlock in Washington weighed down the markets on the opening day of the week, as lawmakers struggled to find a solution to the impasse over the debt-ceiling issue. The day was also marked by disappointing corporate results, and the fear-gauge index posted its biggest percentage jump in two weeks, reflecting heightened investor anxiety. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) plunged 145 points in intra-day trade before recouping losses partially and finally settled at 12,592.80, dropping 88 points or 0.7%. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) shed 0.6% to close the day at 1,337.43. The Nasdaq Composite Index was down 0.6% and signed off at 2,842.80. Investor jitteriness was clearly reflected in the fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) and low volumes. The VIX soared 10.5%, recording its highest ]]></description>

The week also closed with gains as earnings provided enough cushion for the benchmarks to settle in the green. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) was the only benchmark to end in the red as it dropped 0.3% to finish the day at 12,681.16. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) gained 1.2% to end the day at 1,345.02. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 2,858.83, after gaining 0.9%.

		<description><![CDATA[Crude Oil The improving economic scene – both here in the U.S. as well as worldwide – and the continued unrest in producing countries had been the main driver of the oil rally, which saw the commodity zoom past the $110 per barrel level earlier this year. However, apprehensions about high U.S. crude stocks, the release of emergency oil supplies from government-held strategic reserves into the world market, and uncertainty over oil supply disruptions in the Middle East have been weighing on investor sentiment, weakening oil prices to less than $100 a barrel. But far too many factors weigh on oil prices to definitively size up each one of them for their respective impact on prices.

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 7/15/11 Second quarter earnings season is now under way, but things really start to move into high gear next week. There will be 348 firms reporting, and 108 of those are in the S&#38;P 500. By next Friday we should have a very good handle on how the overall earnings season will go. The firms reporting this week are sort of like a who&#8217;s who of U.S. industry including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Caterpillar (CAT), General Electric (GE), International Business Machines (IBM), Intel (INTC), McDonald&#8217;s (MCD), Schlumberger (SLB) and Verizon (VZ). That is an interesting cross section of U.S. business.

		<description><![CDATA[Shares of Halliburton Co. (HAL) are currently trading close to its 52-week high of $51.45. The second-largest member of the oilfield services contingent behind Schlumberger Ltd. (SLB) has seen its share price climb approximately 25% since the beginning of the year, as investors have been buying the stock for its attractive fundamentals and positive outlook.

		<description><![CDATA[Oilfield services provider Baker Hughes (BHI) has launched a new wellbore clean-up and displacement system. This will be utilized to ensure equipment efficiency as well as minimum hazards while operating in high-cost environments such as deepwater applications; horizontal, extended-reach, and deviated wells; deep wells; and wells with high dogleg severity. The latest generation cyclone-based system –– X-Treme Clean XP –– is expected to clear off dregs and scraps more effectively. The system leverages the most advanced technologies used in the industry. Its application is also much safer and convenient compared to the previous iterations. Management believes that the system will be highly beneficial for customers who operate in difficult yet high-value fields. The technique is planned to provide a high level of performance that will moderate the risks. Houston, Texas-based ]]></description>

(HRS) recently won a $16 million contract from the U.S. military forces to supply Falcon III AN/PRC-117G Multiband Manpack tactical radios. Earlier, the company had received orders worth $9.4 million and $5 million, respectively, for the same device from the U.S air and marine departments. This newly developed tactical radio supports both way communications along with better streaming of videos, more delivery of data and information across wideband networks during warfare. Its reduced weight and size will also enhance the movement of the armies in the battlefield. This newly developed AN/PRC-117G Multiband radio software, which provides secure voice and data signals, has also been certified by the National Security Agency (NSA).

		<description><![CDATA[by David Fessler, Investment U Senior Analyst Thursday, June 23, 2011 When Michael Steele first coined the phrase “drill, baby, drill” during a speech at the 2008 Republican National Convention, he suggested the United States needed to increase drilling for oil and gas and to become more energy independent. No kidding… But since then – believe it or not – “drill, baby, drill” is exactly what’s been happening… How Much Drilling is More Drilling? Domestic production is currently at its highest level since 2003. In spite of a massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and an administration largely opposed to increased drilling and fossil fuels in general. If you need proof, look at the Baker Hughes Inc.

Either there are the big integrated firms, or there are hundreds of independent E&#38;P firms, drillers, and refiners. But, of course, in between are lots of companies that specialize in providing services to all these firms. Names like Halliburton (HAL), Schlumberger (SLB), and Baker-Hughes (BHI) are the big players here. Oilfield services is an industry group with 32 companies in it currently, according to the Zacks Industry Rank which follows about 4,400 equities. And two smaller companies that stand out this week &#8212; with a better earnings front than the three giants &#8212; are Basic Energy Services (BAS) and Key Energy Services (KEG), both of which are Zacks #1 Rank (strong buy) stocks.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) dropped 0.2% to close at 12,048.94. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) continued its slide below the psychological level of 1,300 and shed 0.4% to settle at 1,279.56. The Nasdaq Composite Index inched down by a percent to finish the day at 2,675.38. On the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), consolidated volumes were 4.1 billion shares and for every three stocks that declined, only one managed to climb up. The CBOE Volatility Index rose above 18.

		<description><![CDATA[After a volatile trading session, indices finally ended with modest gains buoyed by optimism over Greece’s new plans to tackle its debt crisis. However, on a monthly basis, benchmarks were left lingering in the red. Markets had dropped down during the session as weak economic data weighed on investor sentiment, but rebounded ahead of the close and almost touched the levels benchmarks were closing in on in the morning. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) was up 1.0% to close at 12,569.79. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) closed with gains of 1.1% at 1,345.20.

		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, oil prices gained strength after banks upgraded their crude price forecast; sales of new homes recorded their second consecutive monthly gains, and corporate results came in better than expected. However, markets negated all these positives to drop further down for the third-consecutive day as lingering concerns about slowing growth continued to dampen investor sentiment. Markets ended at their lowest level since April 19 with the benchmarks dropping modestly. The Dow Jones Industrial dropped 0.2% to close at 12,356.21. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was down to 1,316.28, after shedding 0.1% and the Nasdaq closed with a loss of 0.5% at 2,746.16.

		<description><![CDATA[Markets benefited once again from commodities on Wednesday, as a rebound in that sector not only lifted the broader markets but dragged the indices out of the negative territory. Meanwhile, Fed minutes and a positive earnings report from bellwether Dell added to the cheer. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gained 0.6% and settled at 12,560.18. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was up 0.9% to close at 1,340.68. The Nasdaq Composite Index inched up 1.1% to end the day at 2,815.00. On the New York Stock Exchange, AMEX and Nasdaq, consolidated volumes were 6.5 billion shares, well below the average volumes of 8.4 billion shares last year.

		<description><![CDATA[Lukewarm economic data discouraged investors as it showed further signs of economic weakness and coupled with the negative outlook from Hewlett-Packard Company, the markets continued its stay in the red. However, on the back of favorable corporate results, the indices showed some resistance to limit its losses but could not prevent the markets from declining for the third-straight day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, during the day, had dropped 170 points but finally rebounded to close at 12,479.58, shedding 68 points or 0.5%. The Dow finished at its lowest level since April 20.

European sovereign debt worries and China’s move to increase bank’s reserve ratio requirements added to the gloom. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) slipped 1.14% to 12,201.59. During the day, the Standard &#38; Poor’s 500 Index had plunged below 1,300 for the first time since March 24 but rebounded to close at 1,305.14, shedding 1.10%. The Nasdaq Composite Index dropped 1.06% to close at 2,735.38. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) increased 10.7% and posted its highest daily percentage increase since February 22, 2011.

		<description><![CDATA[Markets shed a few points, on Monday, as investors remained concerned about companies missing their earnings estimates. Lower oil prices pulled back the energy sector while blue chips managed moderate gains and outpaced the broader market. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) happened to be the only gainer among the benchmarks as it increased marginally, by 0.01% to close at 12,381.11. The two other benchmarks, the Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) and the Nasdaq Composite Index, lost 0.28% and 0.32% to end at 1,324.46 and 2,771.51, respectively. As the markets wait for the earnings season to start officially from next week, composite volumes remained light on the New York Stock Exchange, Amex and Nasdaq with only 6.73 billion shares traded against last year&#8217;s daily average of 8.47 billion.

		<description><![CDATA[We are maintaining our Neutral recommendation on Schlumberger Limited (SLB). We prefer to remain on the sidelines mainly due to the anticipated short-term profit disruption from the political turbulence in the Middle East and Africa and weather-related hindrances in Australia. In the fourth quarter of 2010, the company substantially surpassed our estimates, mainly attributable to strong activity in the liquid rich plays in North America and overall improvement in Canada. Notably, it’s Oilfield Services revenue grew 16% year over year on an 84% revenue growth in North America. The improved performance was led by higher U.S. land activity as well as revenue growth in Canada that was partially offset by a slowdown in offshore activity, which affected Drilling &#38; Measurements services. The U.S. Gulf of Mexico revenue also showed a ]]></description>

The cost of the plant is estimated at around $65 million and will be on a 200,000-square-foot ground. The project is expected to start by July 2011. The facility will manufacture complex components for oilfield service activities and is expected to generate employment for about 150 people. LED stated that the new plant will likely contribute approximately $16.3 million in new, state tax revenue and almost $4.4 million in new, local tax revenue over the next 10 years.

		<description><![CDATA[The unemployment rate declined to 8.8%, the lowest level in two years, according to a report by the Labor Department, painting a rosy picture of the economic recovery. Markets were also guided higher as Fed officials stated they would stick to their plans of providing economic stimulus. The Dow hit its highest point for 2011 during the day before retreating after oil prices hit a 30-month high. For the indices, the next frontier is the upcoming earnings seasons which will also significantly influence investor sentiment. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) touched 12,419.71, its highest intraday level since June 6, 2008 but finally closed at 12,376.72, gaining 0.5%. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 gained 0.5% and closed at 1,332.41. The Nasdaq Composite Index rose 0.3% to finish off at 2,789.60. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Investors shrugged off disappointing domestic data as energy and technology boosted the indices to highest levels since Libyan violence started dampening the markets last month. However, volumes once again remained low and reflected investor cautiousness ahead of earnings results. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and the Standard &#38; Poor 500 surged 0.7% each, closing at 12,279.01 and 1,319.44, respectively. The Nasdaq Composite Index inched up by a percentage point and finished the day at 2,756.89. Volumes have been particularly low for the past few days and the situation was no different on Wednesday with only 3.6 billion shares changing hands on the New York Stock Exchange. On the NYSE, more than two stocks advanced for every declining stock. TheS&#38;P and Case-Shiller Index reported a slide in the home prices ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Schlumberger Limited (SLB) said that the political unrest in the Middle East and Africa, along with severe weather-related hindrances in Australia, will likely hurt its first quarter earnings of 2011. The company stated that political instability in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya has hit the company’s revenues hard. Disruptions in the Ivory Coast, Yemen, Bahrain, Oman and Algeria also had a minor impact on the company’s earnings. Consequently, these factors will likely affect the first quarter 2011 earnings by 8 cents to 10 cents per share. Additionally, weather-related impediments in Australia (flood issues in its eastern states and Cyclone Yasi in its northeastern coast) have upset the company’s operations. Although Egypt and Tunisia have resumed normal operations, the company expects continued disturbances in Yemen, Libya and Bahrain. Recently, Weatherford International Ltd. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Domestic economic data could not support the indices’ upward momentum on Monday as markets snapped back to red in the final minutes, hurt by cautious corporate guidance and geopolitical tensions. Consumer spending edged ahead while inflation soared to hit new highs post June 2009. Investors’ apprehension against betting big bucks was highlighted as volumes touched their lowest levels for the year. The Dow Jones Industrial average sank 0.2% and closed at 12,197.88. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 and Nasdaq shed 0.3% and 0.5% to finish the day at 1,310.19 and 2,730.68, respectively. Geopolitical concerns kept investors’ fears about volatility alive with only 5.9 billion shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the lowest volumes till date for 2011. On the NYSE, nine stocks declined for every six that advanced. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Upbeat economic data helped offset fears of Japan’s nuclear meltdown and pushed indices higher ending a three-day losing streak for US markets. The day after the Dow recorded its largest decline since August 2010, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 1.39% to end at 11,774.51. The S&#38;P 500 was up 1.34%, or 16.81 points, to close at 1,273.69. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index too gained 19.23 points or 0.73% to close at 2,636.05. The CBOE Volatility Index, Wall Street’s fear gauge, was down 10.4%. However, the Index is up 30.8% over the week. Coming to the economic front, on Thursday the Labor Department lifted market sentiment by reporting a decrease in weekly initial claims figures. Unemployment claims shed 16,000 to 385,000 for the week ending March 12th from 401,000 recorded ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Friday, markets returned to their winning ways after three consecutive days of losses. Moderately positive domestic economic data and a small decline in crude prices brought cheer to investors after a week of falling indices. This was the worst performing week for the year, marked by unrest in the Middle East and surging crude prices which negatively impacted the markets. For the week, the Dow shed 2.1%, the S&#38;P 500 fell 1.7% and Nasdaq was down 1.9%. This was also the worst weekly performance by stocks since November last year. The fear gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) slipped 9.9% to 19.22 suggesting the improved sentiment on Friday and the consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange was 3.8 billion shares.

US officials denied such reports and the markets showed a marginal improvement after closing mixed on Thursday. Though benchmarks Dow and S&#38;P500 continued to remain in the red, the Nasdaq gained marginal momentum relying on the upward movement of tech stocks. Tension in Libya continued, providing no respite to the economic world. Meanwhile fresh US economic data came in, showing both positive and negative trends. The markets closed mixed as the tech-laden Nasdaq moved up while the Dow and S&#38;P500 still waited to end in the green. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) shed 0.3% to close at 12, 068.50 and the S&#38;P 500 declined 0.1% to end ]]></description>
