Over halfway through the trading day on Tuesday, and the broad markets have largely traded sideways, although a little positive. The S&P 500, Nasdaq and Dow Jones industrial average were all up slightly in the afternoon. However, the big news of the day was that crude oil topped $50 earlier, prompting hopes of a recovery within the industry.

There are still concerns over the outcome of the Georgia Senate runoff elections but oil seems to be overriding these at the moment.
