Summary

WTIC/USO: oil printed $78.19… helped by the weaker dollar, and the latest inventory reports.

XLE: energy stocks are a little choppy, if leaning on the upward side.

notable stock: OXY

Mostly reflective of the sector.
I’d note the intersecting 10, 50, 200dma.
Arguably… a big move is coming.

Multiple aspects of support 5440/30s. I’m guessing the market will bounce tomorrow on GDP… if on ‘bad news is good news’. Cyclically low, and even the bolder bears will be out.
