RE:RE:Monday CPG.TO commentCPG.TO held ground quite well on oil dips today, indicating that investors believe that oil prices will be moving higher, thus improving the company's outlook. One issue to bear in mind in these scenarios is that a continued erosion of oil prices can result in a sudden "cascade" of an issuer's stock that has been holding up. That is a very real risk with CPG.TO over the next couple of days. Oil storage numbers, which will come out this week before any deal can be concluded (if that even happens this week), will be bad and will add downward pressure, at least in the very short run, to oil.

Oil prognosis negative before market open and sold trading position at the open at $1.41. Repurchased at $1.34 (this trade and others based on oil price movement). Sold again at $1.42. Bought again at $1.35. Sold again at $1.44. Will NOT hold overnight since even news during the day today (11:46 AM) of Russian willingness to make significant cuts didn't have a lasting impact on crude price. No agreement will occur until after meeting of oil producing nations on Thursday, April 9, 2020 (at the earliest). Oil storage constraints weighing more heavily than positive expectations of oil deal for the moment. Net trading position price improvement (i.e. improvement of long position cost) for the day: $0.14.
