Looking for BIG relief rally tomorrow...

Honk Kong market just hit new high. I expect the techs to open strong again along with the laggards. Oil prices may be weak if too many expected y2k problems to drive up prices further. As it stands I don't see more than a $1 downside, but who knows...I'm not an oil trader. More likely it'll be a non-issue just like it was a non-issue in most investors minds pre-y2k. There were both supply and demand issues so a clear y2k could be seen both ways for oil stocks.

I would be surprised though if breadth doesn't improve significantly during the next month in the overall market. If oils continue to stall I will get off margin in a hurry.

I think it's an E&P game at least until this earnings cycle is over. We may see OSX stocks gain some, but those gains will be tempered by mediocre/poor earnings by and large. I'll probably start to get back into OSX stocks mid Feb or after any significant market pullback. I agree with Bull that over a 2 year period OSX stocks will do better, but during the next 2-6 months it's still an E&P game imho.

But for now it's steady as she goes...
