This news item on Eagle Rock Energy Partners (EROC) crossed last night and while the story in and of itself may not look important...it might be viewed as important considering the tightness of the credit markets. Stock is bid up in the pre market.

Crude oil continues to straddle just above its 200 day moving average so i expect a trendline rally of some sort to develope there...maybe enough to give energy stocks a tail wind after the open...imho of course.
