• Energy Sector Commentary
  The energy sector is poised for...

  The energy sector is poised for a lower start, ending a three-day winning streak amid further weakness in the crude complex and after major equity futures turned lower. Investor sentiment took a hit this morning after Moody’s downgraded their credit rating on several banks and warned of possible cuts to others, driving the entire sector lower and reigniting fears of the health of the U.S. banking systems. Earnings season continued to wind down today with just a handful of producers and midstream operators announcing results but earnings will start to take a back seat as attention shifts to Thursday’s July CPI print, this week's key macro event.

  
  

  WTI and Brent crude oil futures extended yesterday’s declines into this morning’s session, pressured by Chinese trade data which showed imports and exports fell much more than expected in July, strength in the dollar, and as traders begin to assess the impending end of the U.S. summer driving season.

• Yellow’s bankruptcy might cost taxpayers

  The 99-year-old trucking company made it official on Sunday, filing for bankruptcy and ending the employment of its 30,000 workers following years of financial struggle and a labor battle with the Teamsters. But for most outside the trucking industry, the big question looming now is whether the company’s plan to sell off its assets will enable it to pay back the controversial $700 million pandemic-era loan it got from the government or whether other creditors like Apollo Global Management will get whatever is left from the freight company.
