ETF Sector Spotlight For 04/27/2022

Market Recap For April 27th, 2022

Expectations were for lower prices on Wednesday, and that didn’t really happen, other than a slight dip into the red.

Unless a big move to the upside occurs today, the next meaningful move should still come to the downside.

Yesterday’s Sector Performance

Energy and Materials won the day on Wednesday.

Communication Services struggled, once again,

Five-Day Sector Performance

ETF Trade Watch

Communication Services Select Sector SPDR (XLC)

Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR (XLY)

If the market is set to decline lower, as it still appears as if it plans to do, going long on anything is probably a bad idea.

The weakest sectors haven’t changed, Discretionary and Services, and that makes the XLY and XLC great choices for short plays.

Good luck!
