Summary

WTIC/USO: oil has printed $76.40… which is truly bizarre. The macro-econ bears could argue its a sign of economic stress… and also cite Copper $4.13.

XLE: energy stocks lower with oil.

notable stock: OXY

A third day lower… clearly due to oil $76s

notable stock: CVX

S/t alarm bells if the 200dma is taken out.

Equities: sp’60min

Choppy… if still net higher.
The micro 5/15min cycles are on the LOW side, as the setup still offers another wave higher to 5610… if not until tomorrow.
