SLB Earnings

Although they missed estimates most people want to hear what the CEO says on the call. Last earnings announcement they beat estimates and profits rose, but the call was unimpressive so the stock went down 10%. Right now futures on the market are up but I think SLB will have a down day today unless the CEO reassures the strong future of SLB and it must be done convincingly.

Update: SLB is down 6% pre-market. Yikes!
