Stocks were hit hard on Monday-Tuesday with dozens of ETFs becoming oversold, including SPY. These oversold conditions gave way to a strong rebound the rest of the week with Finance and Energy leading the way. Bonds threw a small tantrum after the Fed meeting as the 20+ Yr Treasury Bond ETF fell over 3% and the 10-yr Treasury Yield broke its summer highs. This move benefited banks as the Regional Bank ETF gained over 3% on the week. Even though many ETFs recovered after Monday’s sharp decline, there were 18 new downtrend signals this week. There are still more stock-related ETFs in uptrends than downtrends, but there are still quite a few pockets of weakness with ETFs in downtrends since spring. These downtrends could be big corrections after huge advances and bigger breakouts would signal an end to these corrections.
