Notable Observations and Trends:

  • Last 10 days provides strong evidence of a relief rally as all but 2 composites showed positive cumulative gains. Further evidence is the leadership group comprised of Energy, Precious Metals Miners, and Emerging/Frontier which had been heavily oversold on a long and medium term basis.
  • Additionally over the Last 10 days one of the worst 3 performers (Bonds) had positive performance.
  • Telecom has emerged as a composite to watch being one of the top 3 performers over the last 252 days. Perhaps it is the new safe haven asset class as it has been a top 5 performer on all time frames under study.
  • Telecom has also been a strong performer on a risk-adjusted basis seemingly hugging the belly of the efficient frontier, near or above zero, across all time frames.
