NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Goodrich Petroleum Corp. (GDP) was upgraded by Macquarie to "neutral" from "underperform" in a research note today.
The firm has a $14 target price on the shares.
I am working up a profile on GDP. Macquarie is a first class firm, so their upgrade is definitely worth noting.

Re: GDP
As I pointed out in the profile we published on GDP last week, First Call's Target Price of $31.48 is ridiculously high. However, GDP is approaching 12,000 boepd of production, so it is worth something. Macquarie is a first class outfit and they valued it at $14.00 on October 8.
Some fund with a large position may have been forced to dump it today. There is no news to justify this selloff.

Financial Times had an article today on how shale might not be viable. Costs to much and Saudis will keep oil prices low.
So shalers are really in a tough bind, so the article says.
I don't believe it, demand and supply should balance oil prices somewhere between $85 a barrel and $115 - which will be profitable for many prospects.
