DXY can be factor. Gold-Oil ratio too. Maple Syrup

Then there's the old gold to oil ratio that's fallen out of favor lately.
Must be bent all to hell. Used to be normal was like 16:1 but went way out of whack few years back.

/ES struggles to hold 200. /CLV5 hits head on $42.

Saw that Texas story on CNBC yest about how 3 of largest impacted cities are there, of course it's feast or famine. Still builders are laying foundations like mad. Did same in Miami just year before implosion.
