Wall Street loves a winner!

1. Just heard it on CNN

Halliburton up 2 percent, Wall Street ignoring the so called "Bad news".

Wanna bet Dick didn't make a few calls to the Board?

3. For the next year...

At least, Halliburton is GUARANTEED to do well...one of the "ultimate insiders" will see to that!:eyes:

B-)

4. Someting tells me

Halliburton is buying its own stock... call me cynical

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

5. You know one thing for sure...

They certainly must have a high profit margin, which makes any investor happy.

6. Why wouldn't news of halliburton's insider connections

make its stock go up?

Rich people want to get in on the greed.

[Killarney]

7. Being handed $15 billion in contracts does wonders for a company's stock

:mad:

[RBHam]

8. Something I'd pay to see...

Eloit Spitzer grilling Dick Cheney.

9. They could auction the privilege and pay off the debt.

People all over the world would pay to see it.

I just want the popcorn concession.

10. will the Dick's "deferred compensation" be affected at all?

I wasn't sure if that payoff was tied to stock value, or was it a fixed sum?
