Summary
WTIC/USO: oil printed $73.68, partly helped by the weaker dollar. Next upside resistance is the 200dma in the $74s. Whilst Trump is regularly calling for lower energy prices, I think the reality is a broader commodity climb into the summer.
XLE: energy stocks are sig’ higher. Weekly momentum has turned fractionally positive.
notable stock: OXY
Momo due to turn positive on Wednesday.
