About this episode
Markets saw a 4% decline week before last; last week, markets recovered by 4% in anticipation of what the Fed is going to do this week. Did that big reversal day two weeks ago mark a market bottom? Not necessarily, because there are plenty of examples where such has occurred at market peaks. There is no doubt the recent reversal was bullish, and there is no real reason to be overly bearish at this point. However, risks remain, and one of them is in Oil Prices, which have continued to weaken. Despite a bounce following a sharp sell off, the trend in oil prices remains weak. That does not suggest much relative strength. There is a high correlation between the direction and trend of oil prices with economic activity. The Energy ETF, XLE, which also tracks oil prices very closely, is very oversold, and traders' positioning is very weak on oil stocks. It wouldn't be surprising to see a rotation into energy stocks leading up to the election, especially if it appears a Trump return to the White House is imminent.
