China’s exports fell a greater than expected 25.4% in February (in U.S. dollars) from February 2015. Imports dropped 13.8%. After the recent big rally in commodity prices and in Shanghai equities, traders are seeing the news as a time for caution–and some selling.
Something different–and disconcerting–about today’s oil rally
I’ve got to say that the oil market seems very impressed with the impending meeting of oil producers–scheduled for March 20–that will, if everything goes right, produce promises from Russia, Saudi Arabia and other countries to freeze production at current record levels. A freeze would do nothing to reduce the current oversupply stored in tank farms and anchored tankers around the world.

How long does the market run higher without a check?
Every bit of good news just makes it more likely that the market will raise the odds for an (following the December 2015 increase) interest rate increase in 2016.
