Best place to see performance of various sectors of stocks?

Discussion in 'Stocks' started by SoyUnGanador, Aug 16, 2022.

  1. I want to get into the practice of buying stocks in sectors that have been beaten down. Not last month, not last 3 months, but over a year or course of years. What is the best place to find this kind of thing? Here is a great example:

    https://www.tastytrade.com/news-insights/s-p-s-leaders-and-laggers-of-2022-so-far

    But that is from February, so far as I can tell they don't update it regularly. So does anyone know of a site where I can find out that info?

    Thanks!!!

  2. Why not just look at the sectors yourself? A very easy starting point would be the SPDR sector ETFs: https://www.sectorspdr.com/sectorspdr/

    There are also lots of graphics like these floating around: https://pulliamfamilyoffice.com/current-market-series-part-iii-sector-rotation-strategy/

    EDIT: The link you provided literally uses the SPDR sector ETFs in their tables as proxies for the sectors. That would be a pretty quick and painless way to double check their assertions and then move forward from there.

  4. Thanks a bunch Statistical Trader. That makes sense. I was just hoping there was a site out there that kept this sort of data updated so I could quickly go back and see, for example "ah, financials have underperformed over the last [3] years, and I'm light on financials, so I will start buying into those slowly over the next few months", that sort of thing. Doing it manually takes a little bit of work. :)

  5. Oh wait, there it is! I click on the "full sector tracer" button and it shows it for various periods. Including 1 year and 5 year. That works. If anyone has alternatives let me know, but thanks Statistical Trader!!!

    Why not just use yahoo's free interactive chart,hit the comparison tab,add as many ETFs as you want, XLF,XLE,etc .Be sure to choose a different color so as to tell them apart. Look back as many years as you want.

    Just go on FinViz and look for weak sectors that meet your criteria on the ETF heat map. Then look for stronger stocks in those sectors. Btw, I wouldn't just buy stocks in weak sectors as the sectors are weak for a reason. You would want to know why the market is wrong before doing that.

    Best place is to have your own. However, one needs to have some programming skill and stock charting know how.
    1. Set scan period e.g. Jan 3, 2022 - now
    2. Scan the low within set period
    3. Scan the high on the left(high-low) and right of low(low-high) and high-current
    4. Track the number of days for high-low, low-high, high-current
    5. Export the data to excel and construct a pivot table
    Drill by sector, industry, ticker and high-low, low-high, high-current.
    As the daily data build up, you will have a clear picture where the market is trending.

    A - low Jun 17th, 2022
    A - high-low(red)
    A - low-high(green)
    A - high-current(blue)
