Hello MarketClub members everywhere. Oil prices rebounded briefly above $50 a barrel today after government data showed a surprise drop in U.S. crude inventories, offsetting skepticism over OPEC's planned output cut. Oil prices had fallen earlier on the back of bearish supply data from the American Petroleum Institute. U.S. commercial crude stockpiles fell by 553,000 barrels in the week ended Oct. 21, as reported by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).
The Dow rose 50+ points after briefly dropping more than 100 points this morning. The S&P 500 has been neutral today as financials and energy offset losses in real estate and tech. The Nasdaq has fallen -.27% with Apple shedding about 3% on the day.
Key levels to watch this week:
S&P 500 (CME:SP500): 2,169.60
Dow (INDEX:DJI): 18,399.96
