Hello MishChevron Warns of Weaker 4th Quarter Earnings
Chevron is reporting weaker than expected results.
As we discussed earlier I was expecting this one due to the obvious disconnect on gasoline prices and petroleum futures. Gasbuddy has a great site for seeing this one coming when you lay the gas prices on the petroleum graphs.

MarketWatch reports Chevron warns of weaker fourth-quarter results
Chevron Corp. CVX -2.52% said late Wednesday it expects fourth-quarter earnings to come in "significantly below" its third-quarter results. In its interim quarterly report, Chevron said earnings from its "upstream" exploration and production business will be comparable to its third-quarter results while earnings from its "downstream" refining and marketing operations are likely to fall from the previous quarter's results to break-even. The San Ramon, Calif.-based oil company blamed weak refining margins and refining volumes for the downbeat earnings outlook. The company is scheduled to release its fourth-quarter results on Jan. 27. Chevron shares fell as much as 2% to $105.61 in after hours trade.Mike "Mish" Shedlock
