NY advancing stocks = 0.9 x declining stocks (roughly 1-to-1 flat, chop at the moment) NY advancing volume = 1.7 x declining volume
Wild guess that the volume is going into anything oil

Oil, the only time horizon for me is from now to July, the peak of summer demand. US shale is only drilling in the sweet spot, so expecting them to recover almost a 10% drop in production in a few months just isn't likely. Same deal with Iran and Iraq as both have to invest big time to expand production. Saudi end game has to be supporting the sale of ARAMCO so if I am guessing wrong and the shale guys pull a miracle I think Saudi will just cut more. After the deal for ARAMCO goes through and they have a mountain of cash all bets are off. Longer term, yes this is a bandaid on a spurting chest wound. But for now hope trumps reality. I do guarantee that after all the retail has bought their full the trading houses will time news articles on cheating with especially large inventory builds because after all that is how oil trades.
Also as Economaters pointed out in his video yesterday the shale guys have sold a lot of oil at 50 to 55. If it hits 70 this July (60 last year) that is a lot of lost revenue. I am guessing at some point those with the available credit will be buying back those contracts. If they are skillful it could make for some very sharp recoveries from any sell offs. I am thinking this is going to be a wild ride. And with the bond market the way it is I think a chunk of money is headed for the oil rollercoaster.

BPs: all quite weak except BPNYA which is up 0.25% and of course BPENER which is up more than 3 % at the moment ... Refusal of BPNYA to turn down should caution anybody who wants to aggressively play the downside ...
