ASX surges on oil stupidity

David Llewellyn-Smith

Friday, 3 April 2020

The AUD is up as usual in Asian trade:

Bonds are pulling back on oil:

XJO is up:

Tracking Big Iron which still looks like a sitting duck:

Big Gas is running with El Trumpo’s oil rumourtage. His mates no doubt front ran the supply cut drivel:

Big Gold is yawning again:

Big Banks are falling. It’s Friday after all:

Big Realty has a bit of reality today:

The entire bourse still feels like it’s pre-virus to me. Running on greed and hope as the future collapses.

It’s nowhere near capitulation.
