Investors bet on Katrina's winners and losers........

[Joanne98]

Well we just heard about Halliburton but as you see Fluor is back...

Investors have been piling into the engineering and construction stocks, banking on the fact they should be big winners in the reconstruction. Fluor Corp. jumped $3.34 yesterday to close at $61.91, on the New York Stock Exchange, bringing its advance since last Friday to $4.22 a share. Baton Rouge, La. based Shaw Group Inc. which said it has been in contact with the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and other governmental agencies to assist in the recovery efforts, closed at $21.10, having gained $4.91 over the last three sessions.
