Update: Week of September 26

• The whole energy complex continues its volatility this week as WTI crude was off over $1 but is now up $0.25 and is trading near $79.  ULSD is down today over 2 cents and propane was off 5 cents last Friday at Conway.
• An ongoing concern of recession fears and related demand destruction has continued to drive the energy complex lower.
• Last week the Fed followed through with the 75 basis point interest rate hike.  The dollar is at a 20-year high this morning.  Other oil-consuming countries are also increasing rates to combat inflation concerns.
• Baker Hughes reported on Friday that the rig count increased by one unit bringing the total to 762.  The rig count has increased by 242 rigs over the last year.
