Watchlist for August 23, 2006

Yawn... We're in for a flat-as-a-pancake open this morning. Hopefully we can break out of this little trading range we've been in but I'm not holding my breath. Oil may be a good one to watch today with the Iran news and the oil inventory report hitting the wires at 10:30. I'll have USO on-screen just in case.
