Some companies set the example for how a business should be run. It keeps debt liabilities low, stays on top on dynamic changes in the marketplace to avoid unnecessary risks, and gives back to its shareholders on a consistent basis.

One consistently overlooked market is regional banking. Investors looking to add financial exposure often identify larger national brands leaving these smaller competitors to operate in relative obscurity. Analysts treat regional banks in much the same way – most have little, if any, analyst coverage at all. Savvy investors know that this is actually a good sign.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the June contract are trading above their 20 and 100 day moving average as I’ve talked about in many previous blogs I’m sitting on the sidelines in this market but I do think prices have topped out around $62 which seems to be major resistance as prices settled last Friday at 59.37 while currently trading at 59.70 up slightly for the trading week.
