🏆 Today's Chart of the Day was shared by Grant Hawkridge (@granthawkridge).

Dow Theory was confirmed for the first time in over a year, as Transports made new all-time highs following the Dow Industrials. This setup has historically coincided with forward one-year S&P 500 returns north of +12%.
Grant notes that the modern-day interpretation of Dow Theory is also flashing confirmation, as Semiconductors continue to register record highs alongside the S&P 500.
While original Dow Theory may not carry the same weight it once did, alignment between economically sensitive groups points to a healthy trend and a market with solid underlying support.

The Takeaway: Classic and modern Dow Theory signals are in sync, suggesting the uptrend is well supported beneath the surface.

This bull market is broadening, fueled by an aggressive rotation out of Technology names.

While we remain constructive on the broader market for 2026, we can’t ignore when the pendulum swings too far in one direction.
