Seventy Seven Energy (SSE)


Back in 2011, I bought 100 shares of CHK. Kind of a dumb investment. It's largely, until recently, been to the downside since then, and all I've gotten from it is my $9 dividend each quarter.


Anyway, the other day, I check my account and I now own 7 shares of something called "Seventy-Seven Energy". Symbol SSE and trading at this time at $26.70. And it's up nearly 20% since the shares were given to me


Some base research shows that SSE is a spin off of CHK and it looks like SSE was the oilfield operations arm of CHK.


I have two questions.


1) Why was I given these shares? 2) What recommendations does anyone have for what to do with it?
