I feel pretty good about my bearish stance on XLE (and long on DUG). I confess I am somewhat conflicted because USO actually is shaping up to be a pretty interesting buy. I am telling myself to separate the commodity (oil) from the companies that produce, refine, and distribute it. They are two different creatures.
