Profit from the Pros

Stock Market Reversal of Fortune

Which sectors has been the biggest winners since the Trump victory? Industrials and Financials.

Which sector got beat up the most on Thursday? You guessed it...Industrials and Financials.

These groups ran up too much too fast after the election. Thus, there is excess premium that has to be drained out before they become more attractive investments. Adding to clarity will be early earnings results from flurry of financial giants on Friday: BAC, JPM and WFC. Industrial bellwethers are still 1-2 weeks away.

My guess is that they can't possibly match up to the current lofty expectations thus more pounds of flesh will be extracted. And in the midst of their tumble is when I hope to swoop in and buy the top sector names at more attractive levels. You may want to consider doing the same.

Best,
