#USA - Why We're watching Alphabet: TheStreet

Published on 27 May 2016
A jury ruled that Google's use of API, or Application program interface, in its Android operating system in within fair use, despite Oracle's claims that it violated their patents. The APIs were first made available via Sun, which Oracle acquired in early 2010. Google has maintained its has fairly used Sun's promoted code to developed its own unique software. The decision by California's Northern District federal court was announced late Thursday, and could protect Alphabet shareholders as it now appears Google will not need to shell out the $9 billion Oracle had requested for use of the code. Oracle, however, is expected to appeal the decision. This is the latest battle between the two tech giants. Google won the first round in 2012, when a San Francisco court ruled that the Java APIs in question were not entitled to copyright. But the ruling was later reversed in 2014 in appellate court.

WTI Crude Oil and Natural Gas Forecast May 27, 2016: DailyForex

Published on 26 May 2016
The WTI Crude Oil market initially tried to rally during the day on Thursday but found the $50 level be far too resistive to continue going higher. By doing so we ended up forming a shooting star which of course is a very negative candle and at this point in time I think it is probably just a sign that we are going to have to pullback. This makes a lot of sense, the $50 level had been so resistive back in October, and we are bit extended at this point. However, I see quite a bit of support down at the $48 level, so I think any pullback at this juncture will be short-term in nature at best. I also recognize that if we can break above the top the shooting star that should be a buying opportunity so at this point in time I much more apt to be a buyer that a seller.
