I don't know that
volatile is the right word to use for anything at Eagle. The future is clearly defined - flowbacks returning to AA and native Eagle guys with AA numbers to follow - untill the AMR-APA negotiations are concluded. And then whatever is decided in those talks (like scope relief) will clearly define Eagle's future for maybe the next ten years.
The future hidden from view right now, but it is not going to fluctuate wildly, from one extreem to another. When it does appear it will be (relatively) clear. Eagle is not going away anytime soon. They're not turning off the upgrades soon. They're not dramaticly changing anytime soon, for better or worse.
