Divergent Behavior

Hey friend,

As we close out the trading week, let’s see how markets have been moving.

The Daily Direction

Note: Regional bank contagion fears are roiling the markets again, sending them downwards. No change in directions from yesterday.

The Daily Nugget

When the market is falling, pay close attention to which stocks are not.

If all you do is read the news, you might end up getting the impression that stocks either go down or up – because they report the market as an aggregate.

But while it’s true that stocks are generally correlated with each other, it’s not always the case.

It’s perfectly natural for some stocks to go against the market’s tide – to rise even as the market  falls.

These divergent stocks are the ones you want to pay close attention to, because they may be the new market leaders in the next leg up.

Here’s one way of spotting them.
