Stock markets are up a bit so far this morning.
Big news is that oil is down again, now at about $94.00 a barrel (had gotten to $120/bbl last week).
And refinery gasoline is down to about $2.90/gal, about 50 cents/gal. down from last week.

The ICE Report is finally out and it confirms everything we knew to be true.
Deportations dropped to the lowest level in 26 years despite a record number of illegal border crossings.
It’s clear - we’ve got an open border.
Yesterday I read that oil had dropped on the news that Chevron was ready to do business with Venezuela. Last night I read Maduro says no dice. The oil companies lost out when Venezuela nationalized oil, so US companies would be foolish to invest much there, in my opinion. After they nationalized their oil, Chavez put political cronies in charge that didn’t know anything, so if they did accept Chevron it could be just to get some professional help and then kick them out again.
