MARKET OVERVIEW Overseas trading is vastly improved from the same time yesterday morning, as 13 of the 14 foreign indices that we track are in positive territory. The cumulative average return on the group stands at 0.682. Asian markets finished higher, emboldened by a solid rally in the U.S. on strong earnings reports and a pullback in the price of crude oil. European markets are citing much the same drivers for the rebound occurring across the pond this morning. Adding ballast to the indices was a solid earnings report from SAP and positive sales numbers from Nestle. The November futures contract on sweet crude oil fell 79 cents per barrel on Wednesday and unleaded gas closed at a two-month low, as Hurricane Wilma appears likely to miss the Gulf's energy facilities. Further driving prices lower was a rise in weekly U.S. petroleum supplies and a drop in demand. The Energy Department reported a 5.6-million-barrel increase in crude inventories, 11.9 percent above the year-ago level. The American Petroleum Institute (API), meanwhile, stated that crude supplies rose 11.3 million barrels to total 316.6 million. Gasoline inventories rose unexpectedly, with the Energy Department reporting a climb of 2.9 million to 195.7 million barrels. The API posted a 2.8-million-barrel rise to 197.9 million. In early trading, crude has slipped a penny lower to $62.40 per barrel. Get Free Stock Picks from Bernie Schaeffer, 3 time winner of the Wall Street Journal Stock Picking Contest.

According to Brit Ryle at the 247Profits investment group, these are "the driving forces in the market right now." On the one hand, third quarter earnings have fared well so far. An impressive two-thirds of the companies who've reported have beaten estimates. The all-important future earnings guidance is looking solid, too, so there are few concerns there. What is more worrying, however, is rising inflation - especially now that Fed chairman and chief inflation fighter Alan Greenspan seems resigned to the problem now, too. He once believed high oil prices would have little effect on the economy. But he's now retreating from that stance and is saying that the current prices and subsequent inflationary pressure were "an accident waiting to happen." At a recent speech in Tokyo, Greenspan boldly predicted that high energy prices will be a drag on the economy from here on. However, Greenspan is predicting that price increases due to high energy costs will have a much less drastic effect on the economy than they did in the 70's when oil prices were last this high. Why? Because he feels we will see less of a crunch in that the world is more energy-efficient then it was over two decades ago, and economies require less energy to keep up forward momentum. The fact remains that America is still consuming oil as fast as it can. We may be able to stretch each drop a little further, but we are still using more oil than ever - not to mention the surging demand coming from China and India. Fed Vice-Chairman Roger Ferguson has weighed in on the issue. Quoted in the Associated Press, he stated: "For now, I believe that our policy of removing monetary accommodation at a 'measured' pace is most likely to promote our broader objectives of price stability and maximum sustainable growth." [The hurricanes] had a small effect on the supply side of the economy and have adversely affected the outlook for inflation."
