10-Day Advance/Decline Line
After declines throughout September and the first half of October, the S&P 500 has finally re- versed higher with today’s 1.65% gain being a big part of that. The S&P 500 is on the verge of moving back above its 50-DMA and is now green over the past five days. Not only that, but the past month and a half’s downtrend has now been broken.
Breadth has generally improved as well, and like price, today’s session alone is playing a major role in that recovery in breadth. Today’s session is on pace to finish as an all-or-nothing day (net breadth of (+/-400); the first positive all or nothing day since July 9th.
In addition, the percentage of stocks above their 50 and 200-DMAs have both been recovering alongside the number of stocks hitting new 52-week highs.

P/E Ratio
• Most of the market has turned around, but Communication Services stocks have been lagging behind to a degree. The sector is down 0.57% over the past five days, although, it has come out of oversold territory.
• Breadth as measured by the 10-day advance decline line continues to fluctuate between posi- tive and negative readings; none of which reached extreme levels.
• The percentage of stocks above their 50 and 200-DMAs have also been relatively stable recent-
ly. Currently, just over half of the stocks in the sector are above their long term moving aver-
ages, and just under half are above their 50-DMAs.

• Consumer Discretionary is making a bid at breaking out of its pattern of consolidation that has been in place since the summer.
• Today the sector is three-quarters of one percent below its 52-week high set on July 26th as it also reenters overbought territory for the first time since September 27th.
• While price has not yet broken out, on a relative basis to the S&P 500 the past year’s down- trend has broken.
• The percentage of stocks above their 50-DMAs has also made a solid move higher and moved
back above 50%.

• Consumer Staples was one of the most oversold sectors this time last week, but the 1.25% rally over the past five days has left it right below its 50-DMA.
• While the sector still needs to rally another 0.26% to move back above its 50-day for the first time since September 16th, short term breadth has run hot.
• The 10-day advance decline has moved back into overbought territory for the first time since late August.
• While the percentage of stocks above their moving averages has recovered slightly, there has
yet to be a positive reading in net new highs.

• Energy continues to dramatically outperform with the sector adding on another 3.5% rally over the past five days.
• Given the rally has hardly slowed, the Energy sector is on pace today to finish over two stand- ard deviations above its 50-DMA for the fifteenth day in a row.
• Going back to 1990, there have only been two other stretches of extreme overbought streaks that lasted for longer: January 2018 (18 sessions long) and February 2005 (19 sessions long).
• Not only has the sector consistently been overbought, but 100% of stocks are above their mov-
ing averages.

• Financials are yet another sector that is eyeing a breakout from the highs that have repeatedly been tested throughout the summer and into this fall.
• Although it is fairly flat over the past week, today the sector has come within half of one per- cent of its 52-week high.
• While Financials are one of three sectors that are overbought at the moment, breadth is not yet at an extreme as measured by the 10-day advance decline line.
• Over 90% of the stocks in the sector are above their 200-DMAs, and while a quarter of the sec-
tor still needs to take out their 50-DMAs.

• For most of 2021, the Industrials sector has been stuck trending sideways. Throughout Sep- tember and the first half of October, Industrials were testing the low end of that range, and outside of a couple of pump fakes, it has appeared to have held up at that support.
• The cumulative AD line has also held up at support at the low end of its range as short term breadth has moved back into positive territory.
• With a 0.9% gain in the past five days, the Industrials sector is currently right below its 50- DMA.
• While the sector has yet to move above its moving average, there has been a pick up in the
percentage of the sector’s stocks above their own 50-DMAs.
• The Materials sector has also recently held up at support, but it has yet to move above the lower highs set in the late summer.
• With that said, Materials have been the second best performing sector in the past five days with a 2.81% gain.
• Additionally, at a sector level the index has retaken its 50-DMA.
• Many individual stocks in the sector have done the same. The percentage of stocks above their 50-DMAs has more than doubled since yesterday.
• The cumulative AD line has also held up at the low end of its recent range.

• Real Estate has also posted a better than 2% rally in the past five days alone as breadth runs very hot.
• The 10-day advance decline line is back into extreme overbought territory and at one of the highest levels of the past year.
• While the past week’s rally has not been enough to lift the sector back above its 50-DMA, many members of the sector have retaken their moving averages. That reading has gone from a low of 13.79% at the end of September to 69% today.
• The percentage of stocks above their 200-DMAs never collapsed and currently sits above 90%.

• Utilities got crushed with the rise in rates, but there has been some relief recently as the sector made a higher low.
• Although price is coming off of oversold levels, breadth is running hot.
• The 10-day advance decline has made a vertical move higher reaching overbought territory.
• That strong breadth also meant that the percentage of stocks above their moving averages have recovered.
• Two-thirds of the sector is above their 200-DMAs and 21.4% are above their 50-DMAs versus
Monday’s lows of 25% and 0%, respectively.
