Our Top 10 Charts Report was just published. In this weekly note, we highlight 10 of the most important charts or themes we're currently seeing in asset classes around the world.
Cyclicals Shine
In recent week’s we’ve witnessed a slew of former leadership groups -- mostly growth sectors, achieve our targets and begin to roll over. This might have been a more concerning development if we weren’t witnessing value and cyclical stocks pick up their slack so aggressively. Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve seen energy stocks rebound and make a swift move off support as well as financials rally back to fresh all-time highs. More recently, we’re now seeing industrials and materials dig in and rally off their year-to-date lows. Once again, the bears had some charts looking vulnerable, and failed to make their move. Now it appears that bulls are back in the driver seat and value stocks are poised to take on some leadership. This theme is illustrated well by the strength in our equal-weight custom cyclical index, below.
