U.S. stocks climbed sharply higher Tuesday as a rebound in oil prices assisted reinvigorate bullish sentiment on Wall Street, according to MarketWatch.
The U.S. oil benchmark CLG6, -2.40% rallied 2.9% to finish at $37.87 a barrel, erasing much of the previous session’s rout. However, the big gains for crude didn’t translate to sharp advances in the energy sector, which added 0.6%—one of the session’s smallest advances among the main S&P 500 sectors.
Despite the Tuesday rebound, U.S. oil futures remain down more than 9% since the end of November and are on track for a 2015 drop of nearly 30%.
Analysts will follow oil prices closely, as repercussions of the plunge in oil have filtered through into corporate bond markets, which had a high concentration of high-yield bonds among struggling energy companies. MarketWatch Reports
“Most of the gains on Wall Street are linked to oil price moves and it looks likely that the trend of tight correlation between stocks and oil will continue in early 2016,” said Randy Frederick, managing director of trading and derivatives at Schwab Center for Financial Research.
