Monday was a relatively flat day for the U.S. broad markets. Although crude oil was down on the day, oil & gas stocks still saw an uptick. Industrials also showed some life. Apart from this, the index was largely mixed with no real breakout moves on Monday. Earnings season is just about to kick into gear so this could very well be the calm before the storm.

Gold was up 0.6% at $1,234.50.
