Our Analysis: posted January 16th, 2006. If the 'XOI' closes above 1,091.02 then the 'XOI' will have completed a cup pattern with a measured move to 1,269.41 Our opinion on the 'XOI' was discussed in greater detail in the January 16th edition of the Sterling Weekly. With respects to the price of Oil, I am expecting it to continue to move higher and test $69.82/barrel. If it closes above that level, then I am looking for an upper price target of $83.50/barrel.

Note: In case you are wondering about my track record with the price of oil in the past. In the March 7th, 2005 edition of the Sterling Weekly with oil in the mid $40/barrel range I forecast that oil would move to $64-$69/barrel. In the August 29th, 2005 edition of the Sterling Weekly following Hurricane Katrina I wrote that the price of Oil might "hit $70 barrel, but that should be about it." I stand by what I've wrote and it is there for you to read.
