Cumulative Return Tables:

Notable Observations and Trends:

  • T-Bond Yields have positive cumulative returns on all time frames. This appears to be a one way trade given the prior belief and subsequent start of rate tightening by the Federal Reserve.
  • As noted last week, Oil + Gas and Precious Metals Miners may be experiencing a bit of a relief rally as traders/investors cash in on their short plays and/or try to time a bottom. 
  • Examining the Scatter plots over the last 252 days Healthcare is the best risk-adjusted composite and it's not even close. 
  • Interesting to note the Small Caps composite makes an appearance on the bottom 3 worst performers over the last 21 days.
