Because when the spread widens and growth performs too well compared to value, we often rotate very soon.

TSF - Analytics

And it’s easy to see what we rotate into with TSF - Analytics live theme tracker. It shows us relative performance compared to the S&P 500, updated every 15 minutes intraday.


Now Stocks

Today we will add stocks to our focus list, and I have focused on clear RS leaders holding up better than the rest and setting up.

And I see some really interesting plays as stocks are cooling off. And in the end I have some high octane momentum setups to show, because some stocks did not care about the weakness — and they are our focus.
