Today’s Chart of the Day was shared on Twitter by David Keller (@DKellerCMT). It’s a daily bar chart of the Financial sector ETF, $XLF, over the past two years. The top three holdings in this ETF include; Berkshire Hathaway ($BRK.B), JP Morgan Chase ($JPM), and Bank of America ($BAC). $XLF is currently breaking out of a massive two-year base. Chart setups like this one, where price breaks out of a long-term base, are often followed by impressive rallies. David explains that it’s hard to be bearish on the broader market right now when vital sectors, like Financials, are breaking out like this.

i'd still like to see improvement in these high-yield spreads – bond buyers are sticky with the relative safety of governments or so it looks… we're not even close to 2019 highs despite the equity market bullishness $HYG $TLT pic.twitter.com/JMA1bL5XSS

if you think buying bonds & gold is better than buying stocks over the next few months, $TLT & $GLD so far have remained above oversold conditions (>30 14-day RSI). Imo that would need to remain the case for u to have a chance of being right. I'm open minded. We'll see $SPX $DJIA pic.twitter.com/975IOGlOcx
