First things first: tennis tonight, and NFL. Rumors are the NFL football game will be quite a spectacle for #BLM and social justice. Could be fun to watch.
$20-oil? Some time ago, there were predictions that WTI could hit $20. It never happened. The tea leaves suggest it could happen this time. I think GS was predicting $20-oil about the same time they were betting on $100-oil.
Headline: floating storage begins to fill up as demand wavers. $20-oil? Don't bet against it. I think we're going to see a new wave of bankruptcies, mergers, asset sales, etc. That's easy. The question is will we see some "action" among the majors? Where will we see headlines next? Drillers or refiners?
