Equal Weight S&P 500 has outperformed Cap Weight by 4.2% through 2/7. That's the highest spread going back to 1992. 34 years. Incredible.

If I had one visual to explain what is happening in markets, it is this one. Mag7 breaking down relative to S&P 500. Small Caps breaking out relative to S&P 500. Could it be this simple?
Market internals currently signal "risk-on" - 79% of Discretionary Sector Above 200D - Only 35% Of Staples Sector Above 200D The "spread" between the two is plotted below. 44% more Discretionary stocks above 200D. "Risk-on" stocks rising while "risk-off" falling = bullish.
Total Returns Over Past Year: S&P Pure Value: +22% S&P Pure Growth: +16% Over 600 bps of outperformance in value stocks. Narrow market? This suggests otherwise. 👇
Wall Street's strategists are too cautious on the year ahead's stock market returns 70% of the time - @mattcerminaro.bsky.social chartkidmatt.com/p/25-years-o...
"The black dots show where each sector’s forward P/E stood at the S&P 500’s 10/29 short-term peak. The grey dots show where they stood at the 11/20 short-term trough. Valuation compression in 8 of 10 sectors shown, but most notably in Tech." @mattcerminaro.bsky.social
Google's forward PE looks like a meme stock. Nearly doubled off the low. 👇
Five years ago in November of 2020, Ed @yardeniresearch.bsky.social coined the phrase “Roaring 2020’s" as his forecast for the decade. Good call. Ed stopped by tonight to lay out his case for S&P 500 10,000 by year-end. Real people on The Street listen to Ed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCki...

We haven’t had a meaningful bear market in nearly 20 years. You might think “surely, this must end soon.” Historically, you would be wrong about the *must* part. The length of a bull market doesn’t have to obey your feelings or mine. Chart @mattcerminaro.bsky.social via @bencarlson007.bsky.social

We are seeing capitulatory, bear market low type oversold readings in the middle of a strong bull market. Look at this metric: - % S&P 500 with RSI below 30 (yesterday): 31.5% - % S&P 500 with RSI below 30 (9/30/22) : 31.9% 👇

🐂The avg bull market has 8 5% pullbacks. 👉 We have had 5 in the current bull run. Meaning, it would be normal if we saw several more pullbacks before this bull market ends. 👇
It's Forecast SZN on Wall Street and every firm has their S&P 500 target for 2025. Strategists are expecting a gain of somewhere between 7% and 17%. But allow me to blow your mind: The average gain for stocks in an up year over the last hundred years is actually +21%! @bencarlson007.bsky.social
This one is interesting. - Blue bars are sector returns YTD - Red dots are avg return of stock within sector - Bottom shows over/under performance of the average stock vs its sector. The best sectors YTD also have their average stocks underperforming sharply. 👇

Five charts you need to see for 2025 ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 1️⃣ The S&P 500 has gained 20%+ for two straight years Three 20%+ years hasn't happened outside of the 1990 But are stocks doomed? Not necessarily. Big gains happen more often than you think.
The NASDAQ is -0.50% today. But the internals paint a rosier picture. - 55% of stocks are advancing in the index. Not as "risk off" within. 👇
Why did BlackRock spend $12 billion to acquire a private equity firm last week? I can explain it in a single chart. If you were the CEO of a large asset management firm, you would do the same thing. via Chart Kid @mattcerminaro.bsky.social

Everybody tells us the "market is narrow" That's just not true. I brought the data. In 2H 2024: - The S&P 500 is +11.8% - But the average S&P 500 stock is +13.7% So the average stock is outperforming the index in 2H by 2%. Next time you hear the "narrow market" narrative, reference this. 👇
