Biotech Continues To Be Best Index

No real changes other than positioning changes.

I'm staying away from natural gas.  Starting next week oil may get out of the negatives.

Biotech Remains On Top, Natural Gas Stays In The Cellar

The Biotech sector continues to stay on top;  it did well today with a .45% gain. 

Natural Gas did well up 1.1%,  contrary to last night's call.  The AI model still thinks it's a stinker.

On the list gold moved up to #3, but that's because it's summary percentage hardly changed while the rest when below GL, again based on last night's call.

Industrials May Have Bottomed... for now

Numbers in the Sum column are most meaningful.  But anything between 1.5 and -1.5 is not a very strong call.  So I ignore the middle of the pack.

Again, Biotech is looking for a strong move up.  Industrials and Insurance may be joining in on the fun, next week.   And Energies - they continue to look bad.

Gold Bottom? Energies Not Yet.

Reviewing the overnight numbers it seems that gold may have finally bottomed while energies will not recover anytime soon.  Next week look for a small recovery in the SP500 (^gspc).
