Chart of the Day
Today’s Chart of the Day was shared on Twitter by Nautilus Research (@NautilusCap). It’s a collection of nine important charts to keep an eye on right now. From top left to bottom right, the charts are; the S&P 500 index, S&P 500 equal weight, Technology, Semiconductors, Industrials, Global, Small-Caps, Emerging Markets, and Financials. All nine of these indices and sectors are breaking out from key resistance. It’s hard to be bearish in an environment where breakouts are happening left and right. However, these breakouts must continue to hold for the overall outlook to remain bullish.
