If the Central Banks were our kids, we’d be taking their credit cards away. They are spending us into the poor house! Sure, Wall Street is at the rotten root of this crisis. Their toxic debt is poisoning the global economy and financial system. But there’s plenty of blame to go around.

I figured I would attempt to provide more color on chopper related investments through this blog entry. Based on the earnings forecast of offshore drillers like Transocean (RIG), Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO) and Noble (NE), the offshore oil drilling boom is likely to continue for years to come.
