3 Reasons to Sell Seadrill

In today's video, analyst Joel South discusses Seadrill, a company that is high on his watchlist and one of his favorite offshore drilling firms. In a recent article, he discussed three reasons to buy Seadrill, and in an attempt to give readers the full picture, he details three potential problems that could affect the company's stock price. Check out both videos to gain both the bull and bear theses for this solid company.

    "Your fool" once again fools us about SDRL by failing to mention the genius who runs the company -

    Bye + bye, if yahoo stock charts + comparisons are to be believed, John Fredriksen has run rings around

    Buffett's BErkH. stock in the last decade or so.

    When you analyze genius's with green eye shades,

    you fall back into 19th C + 20th C. statistical methods.

    PS Whilst Buffett gave a bare menu of cash dividedends, JF treated + keeps treating his shareholders generously!
