Yesterday, despite the waves of intuition otherwise, HAL made a steady gain as crude prices themselves plummeted. With Oil reversing and up over 1% already (by 11 AM EST), Halliburton should be turning on its afterburners (no pun intended) soon. Expect steady gains from HAL throughout the upcoming days, but moreover until it reaches a healthy and full sell-point @ 22 -- The time frame on this mark is sketchy at best, but with oil climbing expect Halliburton to gain more rapidly still.
Long/7-12 months? Tough to say again, on the time range.
However, the oil industry is gaining steam and major manufacturer HAL is primed to be among the first of the giants within its industry to breathe comfortably again, and recover. LONG HAL, still, and look at the previous post Re: the probable 200% ROI still @ the 12/share mark.
