Good question...

Unfortunately no one has the answer.

Reqardlesss, it will take some time for the price of crude to stabilize at higher levels and then filter out to companies in the form of earnings. Crude has spiked up before...and the euphoria was short lived. Don't forget,all E&P budgets have been slashed. It'll take some time before they decide to open the purse strings again.

I would suggest picking only stocks that will benefit from a pick-up in the industry....The HAL's,SLB, FGI..and the like. The drillers will have to wait for day rates to improve before they become "earnings driven" again. To miss a few points on the way up would be nothing...

Just be cautious. Happy trading
Dave
