In this weekly note, we highlight 10 of the most important charts or themes we're currently seeing in asset classes around the world.
Losing Value
Markets have been selling off indiscriminately since last week. Even the strongest stocks are under pressure as we're seeing more and more indexes resolve lower from distribution patterns and violate critical support levels. An excellent example of this is the small cap value ETF (IWN). IWN has successfully defended its range lows for the past several months as its peers have broken down. Now that it has resolved to the downside too, we can add it to our growing list of completed tops. If the strongest can't survive and hold their levels, what does that say about the rest of the market? Long story short, this action is not bullish.
