SPDR Sector Relative Strength Analysis Report For Week Starting 8/16/21

in LeoFinance3 years ago

Sector rotation is the action of shifting investment assets from one sector to another to take advantage of cyclical trends in the overall economy in an attempt to beat the market. Sector rotation seeks to capitalize on the theory that not all sectors of the economy perform well at the same time because sectors of the stock market perform differently during the phases of the economic and market cycle.

For example, defensive sectors such as consumer staples, utility and health care stocks tend to outperform during a recessionary phase, while consumer discretionary and tech stocks tend to fare well during early expansions.

When you trade, you want the strongest stocks in the strongest sectors, which is why you should monitor sector performance carefully. With that said, lets determine the relative strength of the sectors relative to the S&P 500 ETF, SPY for the upcoming week.

Awesome!! By the way, I really enjoyed your input when you were participating in the Leo-roundtable podcasts..
I've listened to most of them from oldest to newest and it's really cool to kinda be able to take a time machine back, while in the present, and looking toward the future..
The next 10 years is going to be amazing!
