OIL Sector...

Sergio:

While fundamentals are similar (82 day crude supply), the Emerging markets are beginning to show improvement in their stock prices... This usually precedes an improvement in fundamentals... The Relative Strength line of the XOI is rising, and the line has moved through its 10 day and 50 day MA... This tells me that the XOI will most likely retest the old highs in the 480 area... That's about 11% from current levels... That's also prior to the OPEC cut of 2 million barrels of oil per day as the Emerging markets demand begins to pick up...

Companies like RDC, HAL, and GLM were up during a down market day... This is the kind of positive Relative Strength I look for on down market days... A look at the weekly chart for RDC gives a broader perspective of the beginning of the up move...

Note the rising indicators... The fact that this is happening on the weekly chart underscores the building strength of this move...

The daily chart shows why the weekly chart has rising indicators...

RDC is representative of most stocks in the Oil Services sector... As such, I have to let the technicals guide me ahead of the fundamentals...

Caveat: I own RDC...
