Wrap Comments:
I grew increasingly conservative last week as expiration approached raising cash levels and adding some service company puts as the market seemed to be grinding higher with less certainty. Natural gas continues to be extremely volatile and at least the last release of data on the 15th, the large short cover has not yet occurred as you can see in the table below. There are more energy conference appearances on the near horizon for a number of favorite names on the site and I will dipping a toe in the next couple weeks back into them on sector/market weakness.

Yeah, I got the sale, as expected on pricing, probably a little earlier than some expected. Not very telling on a $/Mcfe basis as the asset was unlike their other reserves in terms of potential. On the whole, good news as it increases liquidity.
DPTR on the tape with a good sized disappointment.
dptr down 30 % pre market

Bill – agreed, just finish writing that up, ugly, not so much about the well although that’s not good but the doubling in the stock of late. They have puts.
