Participation May Broaden In These Three Sectors

Here's the ratio of the Equally-Weighted vs Cap-Weighted Nifty Commodities Index putting in a lower low in price as momentum puts in a higher low. With prices extended from their 200-day moving average, this suggests there's room for mean reversion to the upside.

We're seeing something similar in the Nifty Infrastructure Index, which held its year-to-date lows as momentum diverges. Given the overlap between these two indexes, this is not a surprise.

We're seeing similar action in the Nifty IT Index, which also held its year-to-date lows and is bouncing as momentum diverges.

Mean reversion in these ratios suggests the upside participation in these sectors is going to broaden over the short/intermediate-term. As a result, we want to be looking to individual stocks within them for opportunities on the long side, particularly those that have a smaller weighting in the index.
