The Bloomberg Commodity index (DJP) is breaking above the key $33.25 resistance level, while WTI crude oil is breaking above its 1+ year downtrend. Upside is likely to be capped due to these concerns, but we still continue ...

The Fed's next move is almost guaranteed to be a cut (though when it happens is up for debate). And ...

Sector Relative Strength Rankings.

Key Points: Value related names are improving vs. the previous momentum/growth areas of the market. Many areas that have underperformed are now showing leadership characteristics.

There a...
