News and Reports 1. The oil services industry's collective second-quarter results were terrible due to a significant decline in North American drilling activity 2.. Second quarter EPS from continuing operations reflect a decrease of 77% over the second quarter of 2008; mainly due to a combination of record low seasonal activity in Canada and anticipated pricing declines in both the United States and Canada 3. Concern that contract repricing in the next six to nine months could damage the industry's long-term pricing power and growth prospects for several key international markets such as Mexico, Iraq, and Brazil 4. The industry remains unchanged, and a sustainable recovery is unlikely until the second half of 2010 5. Some new data points about North American and international services pricing are negative, and Iraq is unlikely to be the near-term panacea to boost industry growth 6. The international services market downturn traditionally follows the North American market by three to six months

Recommendation 1. Terrible second-quarter results in North America, International soon to follow 2. Poor growth estimations, revenue growth in decline 3. Beta is high, indicates the security's price will be more volatile than the market 4. Energy prices climbing, amount of oil available on decline, suppliers first to go 5. Sell all 60 shares of WFT
