The Treasury announced a plan to increase its support for the bond market. Wednesday’s announcement put a bid in bonds, weighed on the Dollar and lifted gold. The US Dollar Index extended its breakdown as gold extended on its breakout. Elsewhere, I am seeing bullish setups in the Blockchain Tech ETF and the Physical Uranium ETF. $IEF $UST10Y $USD $GLD $BLOK $URA $SRUUF

There is broad strength within the Healthcare sector because over 80% of its stocks are in long-term uptrends. This is also true for Energy and Finance. The Healthcare SPDR and Biotech ETF confirm strength with both hitting new highs this week. Within these groups, I see a flag breakout in Eli Lilly and a steady uptrend in Biogen. $XLV $IBB $LLY $BIIB

The stock market remains in bull mode, but traders should be prepared for the possibility of a correction or pullback. It has been 91 days since the last 5% drawdown and seasonal headwinds are around the corner. SPY, QQQ, XLK and the AI ETFs broke out with surges in early August. It is important that these breakouts hold. Today’s report will set the key levels to watch. $SPY $QQQ $RSP $XLK $SMH $SOXX $DRAM $AIQ $ARTY $DTCR $IDGT $UFOX $IYZ

Today’s report starts off with the bond ETFs because bonds are in long-term downtrends and interest rates are in long-term uptrends. These trends have yet to affect the stock market, but certain groups could face headwinds. Attention then turns to the breakouts in gold and gold miners, and then the setups agriculture and agribusiness. $TLT $IEF $UST10Y $UST20Y $GLD $GDX $DBA $MOO

The Technology SPDR accounts for 37.5% of the S&P 500, which makes it the biggest sector in the S&P 500, by far. Finance is a distant second at 12.3%. Semiconductors account for around 45% of the Technology sector, which suggests that semiconductors account for around 16% of the S&P 500, more than the Finance sector. Semiconductors are a major force in the market-cap weighed universe. With that in mind, today’s report will focus on semiconductors, memory and AI. $SMH $SOXX $DRAM $EWY $MU $SNDK $STX $AIQ $ARTY $DTCR $IDGT $UFOX $IYZ

Today’s report starts with the broad market ETFs and then dives into energy. Oil surged the last three days and could be forming a bullish triangle. Energy ETFs are leading as the Energy SPDR broke out on a long and short term basis. Analysis extends into ETFs related to oil services, exploration & production, natural gas and MLPs. $SPY $RSP $QQQ $XLK $USL $XLE $OIH $XOP $FCG $AMLP

The stock market continues to click on all cylinders with ETFs related to small-caps, mid-caps and equal-weight hitting new highs. QQQ and XLK are not far behind after big breakout moves the last four days. Today’s report focuses on the biotech ETFs as they forge short-term setups after new highs. With biotech, Gilead recaptured its 200-day SMA and Vertex is firming in a Bullish Setup Zone. $IBB $XBI $GILD $VRTX

Large-caps led the market over the last three days with SPY breaking triangle resistance. QQQ also surged, but remains just short of a breakout. Today’s report focus on the Technology SPDR and the ETFs in the AI stack. These include semiconductors, broad AI, data center REITs and connectivity. $SPY $QQQ $XLK $AIQ $ARTY $SMH $SOXX $IDGT $DTCR $IYZ $UFOX

The Gold SPDR faces strong headwinds with a strong Dollar and rising short-term rates, but I am seeing a potentially bullish setup on the price chart as GLD firms near a key retracement. Copper and Base Metals are up year-to-date and forming bullish patterns, while the Copper Miners ETF is firming in a Bullish Setup Zone. $GLD $CPER $DBB $COPX

Today’s report looks for life within the technology sector (sans semiconductors). Yes, there are signs of life. The Software iShares and SPDR surged off support zones the last two days. Cloud Computing joined with a surge off the 200-day SMA. Elsewhere, the Medical Devices ETF broke triple bottom resistance and the Telecom ETF is setting up. $IGV $XSW $SKYY $IHI $IYZ

SPY is stuck in a trading range because of group rotations under the surface. Since June, money moved out of tech, communication services and consumer discretionary. This money found its way into industrials, healthcare and finance. The fate of SPY hinges on QQQ, tech and semis. $SPY $QQQ $XLK $SMH $SOXX $DRAM $NVDA
