Phil's gone and we have a new CEO who will speak Tuesday. Whining about what Phil did or did not do achieves nada .
The only people concerned are those with options. Others know IOC has the assets and maybe inspite of Phil's bumbling will get it done. Exxon is quite anxious to get this done. They have a process that made them Exxon and investors need to wait to get it right.

JFT, investors expect the new CEO to put to rest the Phil legacy, and announce a deal imminently. To think that only options holders are concerned, is a misguided thought that you should eliminate from your mind. Nobody likes to watch dead money for more than two years. Sure, they will ultimately succeed. Movieguy is still expecting an answer to his question, I suppose.
