1\/ Your Tank Will Soon Be More Expensive to Fill<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The price of oil has been steadily rising since November, despite concerns about the economic impact of shutdowns in large U.S. cities. The strong trends appear to indicate that the market anticipates not just a mild rebound in aggregate demand<\/a>, but a strong one throughout 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are at least three reasons investors might justify that expectation: first, COVID-19 vaccinations will undo the economic impact of the pandemic; second, people have already learned to adjust to a new normal and will thrive going forward; and third, energy prices were simply oversold<\/a> anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chart below compares the price of Crude Oil futures (USOIL<\/a>) since November 1st with Exxon Mobil shares (XOM<\/a>) and USCF\u2019s United States Gasoline Fund ETF (UGA<\/a>). UGA isn\u2019t very liquid, but it does do a good job of giving chart watchers about a two-week look-ahead on the price of gas. Spoiler alert: it\u2019s going higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of the reason for these upward trends, it is important to take note that investors really do think the economy\u2019s prospects are bright. That is a bullish signal all by itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

2\/ So Who Was the Winner Here?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The latest episode in a legal drama between tech behemoths Microsoft (MSFT<\/a>) and Amazon (AMZN<\/a>) unfolded after the markets closed yesterday. The impact spilled into today\u2019s trading in a particularly interesting way. Here\u2019s the salient background: a little over a year ago, the Pentagon awarded a 10 billion dollar contract to Microsoft over competing contractor Amazon. Amazon called for this contract not to be allowed to go forward until the selection process could be further reviewed, and between continuing review efforts and legal challenges, the back-and-forth over the matter has been going on for months. Yesterday a court filing by Amazon that has been under seal since October 23rd was made public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unsealed complaint from Amazon\u2019s legal team was that the original decision was politically motivated and financially and technologically unsound. How (yawn) shocking to hear such things stated. But what is actually worth noting, as seen in the chart below, was that shares for both companies rose by more than two percent. Especially on a day when the S&P 500 index (SPX<\/a>) closed barely a quarter-percent higher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you try to interpret these results as producing a winner or a loser in this battle, it doesn\u2019t seem to add up. Looking instead for an interpretation that might benefit both companies would make more sense. Perhaps analysts opined that if Amazon doesn\u2019t have any better case than this, it will surely soon be over\u2014thus less legal costs for both companies. Or perhaps they reasoned that there will be a lot more government contracts to follow on from this project. Whatever the reason, this strong upward move for both companies is a bullish signal because it means the legal battle was clearly weighing on investor sentiment<\/a> for both companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3\/ Bitcoin Versus Gold or Google<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a fascinating drama that unleashed itself on the internet last night around midnight UTC, Google servers went down. Parent company Alphabet (GOOGL<\/a>) stock fell today in line with market indexes, thus indicating that investors weren\u2019t bothered by the event. However, according to some opinions<\/a>, perhaps they should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 30-minute outage sparked a bit of comparison between Google\u2019s centralized internet operations and Bitcoin\u2019s decentralized blockchain technology. The chart below compares Bitcoin (BTCUSD<\/a>), Alphabet and State Street\u2019s Gold Trust ETF (GLD<\/a>). It doesn\u2019t look like much of a battle. Bitcoin\u2019s price rocketed to all-time highs as investors took the occasion to celebrate the cryptocurrency\u2019s resiliency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few weeks ago, when Bitcoin\u2019s price pattern was mentioned here in the Chart Advisor newsletter, the key detail would be whether the price held itself above the 50% retracement between the 2018 high and the 2019 high. That happened, and a bullish trend has begun since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

4\/ The Bottom Line <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Oil and energy prices continue trending higher confirming the notion that investors expect consumer demand to continue strengthening. The Amazon and Microsoft court battle has likely kept some investors on the sidelines with these two companies, but yesterday\u2019s unsealed filing seemed to trigger buying on both stocks indicating investors don\u2019t really care about the legal battle. Bitcoin\u2019s new high may have bigger meaning than its price trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
