March 28th 2011 Stock Market Recap with Oil Analysis

Further consolidation was seen today as the market pulled back on lower volume. This is a good sign for bulls and with a few days more rest we could easily see the market back on the move higher.

Also included tonight is a chart of Oil which is right below its 52 week highs. Oil explorations, production, drilling, services, etc. are all great areas to look for solid stock picks at this time. Some names on my watchlist currently include: BHI, BEXP, EXXI, GPOR, AREX, CHK, HP, RES, HAL, FTO, TSO, WNR, VLO, HOC, APA.

Stay frosty.
