Scott Wren, senior global equity strategist at Wells Fargo Investment Institute tells CNBC's "Power Lunch" on Monday oil will be supportive of stocks in 2017. "Our oil team's year-end 2017 oil target range is $40-$50 for WTI Crude," Wren said.

He believes this is above the range needed for stability in the markets.

"$30-$35, in my opinion, appears to be a (wide) line in the sand for equities, above $30-$35 and the equity market can hold in and move higher (and decouple in terms of price)," Wren said.

WTI Crude is up 2 percent during trading and is up 27 percent year-to-date.
