This morning, Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) (MRNA) announced that its vaccine candidate was 94.5% effective against the coronavirus. This came after Pfizer’s (PFE) announcement last Monday which showed similar efficacy for its vaccine

Oil and other risky assets have jumped over the past week on optimism that the world may return to normal by end of 2021. Other areas that benefit from re-opening, including airlines, casinos, cruise lines and hotels, have also gained.

Oil and related ETFs have been among the areas hardest hit by the pandemic and in fact, rising coronavirus cases globally could cap the gains as lockdowns have re-emerged.

The SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Equipment & Services (NYSE:XES) ETF (XES) is up more than 9% today and more than 36% this month. The VanEck Vectors Oil Services ETF (OIH) is up more than 10% today and about 40% in November. However, both are still down more than 50% year-to-date.

  •            Enrich the conversation, don’t trash it.

  •           Stay focused and on track. Only post material that’s relevant to the topic being discussed. 

  •           Be respectful. Even negative opinions can be framed positively and diplomatically. Avoid profanity, slander or personal attacks directed at an author or another user. Racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination will not be tolerated.

  • Use standard writing style. Include punctuation and upper and lower cases. Comments that are written in all caps and contain excessive use of symbols will be removed.

  • Doxxing. We do not allow any sharing of private or personal contact or other information about any individual or organization. This will result in immediate suspension of the commentor and his or her account.
  • Don’t monopolize the conversation. We appreciate passion and conviction, but we also strongly believe in giving everyone a chance to air their point of view.
