Chart of the Day
Today’s Chart of the Day was shared by David Zarling (@AdaptivCharts). It's a daily candlestick chart of the Industrial sector ETF, $XLI, over the past three years. The top-weighted holdings in this sector include, $UNP, $UPS, $RTX, $HON, and $BA. David points out that $XLI broke a key support level today, closing at its lowest level in nearly a year. The Industrial sector is one of the most positively correlated sectors to the S&P 500. This is another one to add to the growing list of bearish developments for the broader market.
Quote of the Day
“Keep in mind that progress is not always linear. It takes constant course correcting and often a lot of zigzagging. Unfortunate things happen, accidents occur, and setbacks are usually painful, but that does not mean we quit.”
- Buzz Aldrin
