Chart of the Day

๐Ÿ† Todayโ€™s Chart of the Day was shared by Larry Thompson (@HostileCharts).

  • Over half of the NYSE FANG+ Index stocks will report earnings this week, including $MSFT, $AAPL, $AMZN, $META, $GOOGL, and $AMD.
  • Mega-Caps have been leading again this year, and they could remain leaders for the foreseeable future, given the NYSE FANG+ Index recently broke out from a three-year base relative to the S&P 500.
  • Mega-Cap dominance has caused many to question the health of the current rally. However, Larry points out that thereโ€™s nothing wrong with the best players on your team scoring most of the points. While Mega-Caps are outperforming, some of the more beaten-down areas have begun to participate, including Banks, Biotech, and IPO stocks.

The takeaway: The NYSE FANG+ Index recently broke out to record highs versus the S&P 500, indicating that Mega-Caps could remain dominant in the coming weeks. Mega-Cap leadership shouldnโ€™t be feared, especially since other areas have begun to participate recently.
