MDU To "Market" Its Eploration/Production Division; Earnings On Tap Today -- November 3, 2014; Number Of Active Rigs In North Dakota Slumps

Biggest story of the day: MDU bailing on the Bakken. MDU will "market" its Fidelity exploration and production division. Rumors Oasis could be doing the same thing. Maybe some big operator could scoop up both Oasis and Fidelity. Add Fidelity to the list that includes OXY USA.

Second biggest story of the day, non-energy: Sprint with huge earnings miss; loses 19 cent; almost 4x expected; revenues rise less than expected; will cut 2,000 more jobs; reduce staff 5%. Stock falls 7%.
