The New Leaders
Biotech continues to be among the top-performing industry groups over shorter timeframes. They were among the first groups of stocks to bottom back in May. They were also first in line to complete a reversal pattern back in June.
This is illustrated by the double bottom in the S&P SPDR Biotech ETF (XBI) above. After digesting gains in a tight range for most of July, Biotech stocks are now resolving higher once again. We think the bullish resolution from this high and tight flag is a good roadmap for what other growth stocks and indexes are likely to do in the coming weeks and months.
