DP Trading Room: Defensive Sectors Lead the Pack

Published on February 24, 2025 at 02:06 PM by Erin Swenlin

DecisionPoint Alert

The complexion of the market is changing. Aggressive sectors which have led the market higher are now beginning to show signs of strain as momentum slowly dissipates and prices turn lower. However, defensive sectors (XLP, XLRE, XLV and XLU) are now leading the market. Typically when this occurs the market is at a top. Given the look of the SPY, we could very well have hit a major market top.

Carl started off the trading room with a review of the DP Signal Table and Bias Table which are still looking bullish overall.

He then gave us his analysis of the market in general looking at not only the SPY, but Bitcoin, Gold, Gold Miners, the Dollar, Bonds and more!

Once the market review was complete, Carl walked us through the Magnificent Seven charts, both daily and weekly. There is clear weakness showing through on most of these stocks and that doesn't bode well for the market as a whole.

Erin took over and discussed sector rotation, specifically the gains in defensive sectors. Aggressive sectors are topping and looking very weak. Energy has some potential, but it still has to figure out what "drill, baby, drill" will mean for Crude Oil related stocks.

Finally, Erin covered viewer symbol requests which included SMCI, MSTR, PLTR and JPM.
