This Will Not Do

Futures are well off their highs, following a weaker than expected Empire Manufacturing Index reading. European markets, especially the FTSE, have been selling off for hours. Oil, which was initially lower by 3%, reversed and was up around 60 cents all night long. But now it’s flat and looking weak. I don’t care if RVBD caught a private equity bid, or a slew of analysts decided to upgrade stocks today. If oil cannot go higher after last week’s decline, we are going lower.

Frankly, this is becoming monotonous and boring, seeing the market run up in the morning, only to immediately sell off–leaving investors with garish losses.

There is nothing more to say, so I am not going to bother writing another word.

    If we assume that oil prices bottom around $40-60 & stabilize in the 70s sometime next year. Are oil names oversold? Oil services?

    All big up opens need to be sold is my mentality lately.

    If oil cant go higher we’re going lower? Low oil prices are a good thing for most things, no?

    This market needs to stabilize at these levels for any confidence to return.

    Up or Down will mean Down. Only Flat could possibly mean Up!
