Chart of the Day
Today’s Chart of the Day was shared by Alfonso Depablos (@AlfCharts). The chart shows Crude Oil futures (black) and the Energy Sector (blue) over the past 13 years. Crude Oil is back below $100 a barrel, despite the warnings of $300 Oil from the mainstream media. It has already corrected more than 20% on a closing basis, after hitting its highest level in more than a decade just last week. Alfonso points out that this is a pretty logical level for both Crude Oil and the Energy Sector to take a breather after sprinting to multi-year highs. For Crude Oil, that level is around $110-115, and for the Energy Sector, it's around $78-80. Let's clear those levels before we entertain the possibility of $300 Oil!
Quote of the Day
"When things go badly, people become cautious. Then their caution causes things to go well, and when things go well, they become incautious. I think that's a forever cycle."
