    Chevron (CVX) guides up for Q1, saying in an interim update that earnings will top last quarter's, thanks to higher crude prices and less obvious factors such as improved refining profits. Downstream and chemical margins are better, to go along with lower costs and asset sales.

  • Chevron is a company a buddy of mine has been employed by for many years. He never said a negative. Hard to believe his only complaint was with a few idiots, but the company he claimed was first rate! I bought shares higher and have been buying down. I bought on margin and I am getting a little uneasy, because I have never bought things unless I paid as I went. But the price kept dropping this week and my only thought was to buy in lower each time the market dropped. I lowered my share cost by $2. I waited for this announcement with a vague notion it will be positive like it turned out to be. My back ground is in Municipals, so I think like a bond trader not a stock trader. It has been one hell of a lesson this past 5 days! If my dad knew how much I am in over my head he'd disown me as a nut case. But with that said, unless something catastrophic hits the market in the next two weeks, I'd say CVX has a good opportunity to advance, after all this company has continually performed well. S&P says it is worth $108 a share. I am sure some disagree, but today after hours it was up $.60 just like that! On the flip side, it's true value is $66 or somewhere near there, the market has so much inflated prices added in, so where do you draw the line?
