ConocoPhillips Plans $34 Billion in Charges
EXTRACTS FROM WALL STREET JOURNAL ARTICLE: In a sign that global economic woes are hobbling even the once-mighty oil industry, ConocoPhillips on Friday said it would slash its capital budget and lay off 4% of its work force, or about 1,350 workers. The company also will take several one-time charges, totaling $34 billion, against fourth-quarter earnings. The move raises questions about whether other global energy producers, such as Chevron and Royal Dutch Shell PLC, might take similar steps in coming weeks.
Guns From Londonistan: the $350 million fine paid by Lloyds TSB Group
