M&A in U.S. had been picking up and now in Canada we have a Cenovus/Husky merger just announced, IMO another bottom sign

Helluva statement day for my XOP/oil stock bullish scenario. Note I did sell few that were up 15-20% to shift some funds to the miners which were down 8-10% at the time. Expect volatility but at least a large int term advance appears underway IMO

not quite yet, looks to me the initial pattern off the low is still in progress and that pullback might be too "easy", we see

Record volume on XLE. Looks like everyone is piling in like they did into SLV.

Exited energy longs, gains just too good, as always DYODD

Agree.

 

XOP "might" have ended 5 up daily from low near 38, great count "if" we get a large correction, more bullish count is it just keeps going - don't care when I get these type of gains

I am a market whore, I am in the markets to make money, whether its Gold/Miners, oil/gas stocks, other sectors. Because of my long and intermediate term RATIO ANALYSIS of XOP/GDX and XOP/S&P, and XOP/oil ratios I have been in the past week slowly accumulating oil/gas stocks as I believe in the months/year ahead the ratio analysis suggest they will outperform the GDX and SPX. I now have a similar oil/gas stock position currently as compared to my gold miner position after some shifting this morning, yet I am about 35-40% long (in total) in my accts. I can't forecast when a major turn will occur but the technical/chart action suggests to me that its close and even if it takes a few more months there appears much less risk of the XOP declining much more in respect to GDX or SPX. The ONE big caveat is that they ALL could decline substantially together if the stock market took another big hit like March. In any case my thinking is that having some exposure to oil/gas stocks is now warranted given the historic lows seen in these ratios and technical/chart indications a big turn has a very solid chance to occur in the months/year ahead. Take it FWIW and DYODD

What a great call this was!!
