Brent:


In the first half of the week oil quotes drop is likely to occur because of negative US statistics. Oil inventories in US are at their historical high now and Friday Baker Hughes release shows that American companies are still ramping up oil output. Number of horizontal drilling platforms has increased by 15 units in a week, and number of vertical platforms by 8. In total there are 652 working platforms in USA now, that is the highest since September 11th 2015. Considering this, we expect renewal of historical high of oil output in US. That'll make Brent to test March 22th low (49,91). After that corrective rollback to the upside to 51,00 region is possible, as market is full of rumors of OPEC extending oil production cut on the next cartel summit on May 25th in Vien. According to CFTC large speculators have again increased futures contracts sales by 15.3 thousand. Futures sales are going on over the last 4 weeks in a row confirming bearish trend. Trading signals: Sell 50,69/52,21 and take profit 49,85.

Second of all, 10-year Treasury bonds yield, which has negative correlation with Broad Market Index, is decreasing two weeks in a row. That's a positive factor for shares. Current market P/E ratio is 33.6, along with market bonds yield of 2.97% it indicates strong stock market overheating and coming correction. Now government bonds yield is 2.4% which gives S&P500 potential for growing. Trading signals: Buy 2335/2315 and take profit 2365.
