In seeking to track the performance of the S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Select Industry Index, the fund employs a sampling strategy. It generally invests substantially all, but at least 80%, of its total assets in the securities comprising the index.

RE:RE:RE:RE:That explains Art and his cronies getting free options

RE:RE:RE:RE:That explains Art and his cronies getting free optionsXOP already took 30 million options earlier this year.  Nobody minds management getting a decent wage and some options.  The ongoing problem here has always been XOP's extravagant compensation and spending, with no revenues, and massive option grants.  This 7.5 million options was a double down this year.  Of course they won't exercise them if this doesn't play out.  But if it does play out, they have a free ride.  This last option grant is just too close to a spud date, that they had to know was coming.  That is a problem.  Management must be confident that Block 13 will prove out, to dilute investors that much more after 4 years of living off financings.
