About market, TAPE cratered to oil price slump and its worldwide negative ramification, GDP of most countries will be impacted as oil taxation brings revenues. This is too sudden and will have negative impact even on boomtown housing. Internals were clobbered as capitulation took hold. I expect TAPE to stabilize here and work its way higher.
