Today, the market broke lower, moving beneath the upper micro support that I outlined yesterday. With that break, focus now shifts to the larger support zone below, which has held thus far. From here, we will need to closely monitor the structure to the upside to determine whether the market can develop a full five-wave move higher, followed by a break of overhead resistance. That type of action would provide an indication that the market is ready to put in a bottom and push to new highs in the weeks and months ahead.
Written by Mark Malinowski with charts and commentary by Zac Mannes and Garrett PattenBlack gold, Texas Tea, Big Oil, and the Valdez. When the average American thinks about things that are quintessential energy history, let’s be honest, they think about Exxon-Mobil. They have brands like Esso, Mobil, and Exxon, which are household names that we see all the time across 46 of the United States and Canada. Exxon Mobil occupies position number 15 as of early 2026 in terms of Market Capitalization on the SP 500. So there are only 14 companies that have a larger market cap in the US.
