The Market On Wednesday

  Good morning. It is 34 degrees and cloudy here in the Upper Hudson Valley, the forecast predicts a cloudy day with temperatures in the low 40s this afternoon. Our poor country.

  At 9:20 a.m. ET DOW futures are a +96 and the price of oil per barrel is down. Oil continues to trade in the $49 to $53 per barrel range. The market is poised to open moderately higher.

  Today Trump will sign an executive order allocating resources to building his ridiculous wall paid for by us.I seem to recall GOPers calling Obama's use of the executive order as being unconstitutional and against the will of the people. I guess that little piece of hypocritical bullshit is going to be tucked away for a future date. Pipelines, we got em. You knew it would happen eventually.
