Peabody Energy Corp said on Wednesday its second-quarter profit more than doubled, easily beating Wall Street forecasts, as soaring global demand drove prices higher.

Net income was $233.4 million, or 86 cents per share, compared with $107.7 million, or 40 cents per share, a year earlier, the St Louis-based miner said.

Why aren't premarket numbers looking any better - only + 0.65% ??

I'm in it as a long term play.. As long as the dividends keep coming I'm happy.
I'm a bit worried as I bought it at it's peek, but they have huge reserves and will be able to sustain their payments for at least 7 or 8 years.
