When we talk about market bellwethers, we are referring to large-cap equities that indicate the broader market's future direction.

These stocks often have a heavy weighting in the most important sectors and indexes, as well as a notable economic impact due to their size and influence.

The world's largest bank and financial institution, JPMorgan Chase $JPM checks all these boxes and more.

January 9, 2024

From the Desk of Steve Strazza @Sstrazza and Alfonso Depablos @AlfCharts

Breadth is expanding to a growing list of sectors and industry groups as the current bull market continues to broaden in scope and participation.

Naturally, this phenomenon is not limited to the US. We’re also seeing more and more countries and regions around the world join in on the party.
