Record Breaking Performance

The DJIA topped 14,000 today and overall the market finished mixed.



We watched the negative Coca Cola news pull the sector down. Yet American Express was up 4.7% today, to 64.80.



Earnings keep improving for enough companies to continue to drive this market upward.



Although, the market did smell the possible joining of 2 beast. Verizon and Vodafone, in a 160 million dollar possible deal. M & A can jump start an industry into new highs like a match to a flame.



We like SPL btw. Superior Energy Services, Inc. provides oilfield services and equipment to serve drilling and production-related needs of oil and gas companies in the United States. It operates in four segments: Well Intervention Services, Rental Tools, Marine Services, and Oil and Gas Operations.



We should disclose that we do own options on January calls on SPL.

Good Fortune!
