USO daily

XLE weekly

Summary

WTIC/USO: oil printed $95.97. I’d keep in mind the 200dma… $92s (soon… $93s)… which is clearly viable tomorrow.

XLE: energy stocks are having a rough day, with oil $95s. Early Wed’ threatens a red open, but I’m inclined to see a whipsaw upward, for a sector that is s/t cyclically low.

*I hold long via SLB, KMI, RIG, CHPT
I want to pick up OXY early Wed’, and add to the existing quartet on ANY weakness.

notable stock: KMI

I comfortably hold.

notable stock: SLB
