Crow is a delusional Pumper The simple facts are that IAE was down 30% in 2011. Look at the chart. The price of oil was extremely high during this period. They were saying they would dramatically increase their production a year ago and they will keep saying it. This is quite different from actually achieving it. Every oil compay on the planet will issue forward looking statements claiming to be increasing production. These are not facts.
Enough with the stupid saying long and strong. Short and weak is more appropriate. The stock has been a weak performer and was a short and not a long in 2011.
