Financial media would have you think seven stocks are responsible for “the market’s” gain this year. But the charts are telling us otherwise. Almost every sector is up double digits since last June. To understand what’s happening in the markets, this week we connect with market technician JC Parets. 

JC is seeing a healthy sector rotation continue. It started last year when value rallied. Investors moved into tech this year, and now small caps and industrials are catching a bid.

JC covers the many opportunities available to those investors willing to look beyond the US, with charts on several stocks, commodities, and sectors covered. Below are highlights and timestamped links to the video:

• 9:30 – Japanese stocks are outperforming US stocks and should continue to do so. 

• 10:40 – The energy sector has all the potential in the world but isn’t working yet. Will energy stocks break out?

• 17:40 – What’s happening with gold, copper, uranium, and chemicals?

• 19:28 – Tesla, is this the start of something big?

• 27:15 – Do you own enough bitcoin?
