The Industrials Sector Index Fund $XLI

  The Industrials Sector Index Fund $XLI   During this bull market in particular, the one that turned 8-months old earlier this week, Industrials have been a real leader. The Industrials Sector Index Fund $XLI is the best performing sector of them all since the June lows. Now take a look at Industrials on an equally-weighted basis relative to the S&P500 equally-weighted. From a broader perspective, Industrials are breaking out to new 14-year highs relative to the rest of the market: One thing we know for certain is that new 14-year highs are not something we see a lot of in downtrends.

Both the BMI and the  SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY)  sold off – before rebounding and surging higher in October. I want to be very clear that an overbought BMI doesn’t guarantee an imminent pullback. In 2020, as the markets and economy were rallying after the COVID-19 shutdown, the BMI stayed up in overbought territory for nearly three months. And yet, there was a lot of money to be made in that time.

  February Hangover . The November through January period is historically the most bullish 3 months of the year. And then comes the February Hangover. We're in the middle of that right now. Look at the average performance of every February going back to 1950: And remember, this is the most bullish quarter of the 4-year presidential cycle. Of the 16 quarters in the entire cycle, the one we're in is historically the most bullish.
