Fund Rankings Update, 11/1/2013

Weekly Average Momentum Index (AMI) rankings of HSA, SSPP, RSP, SELECT, ETF, iETF, sETF have been posted at http://ycprankings.awardspace.us/RankingTables.htm  and AMI Tables and Logs

Trading signal occurs in SELECT model portfolio: Sell FBIOX, Buy FSAIX.

Stocks took a pause after reaching record high with mixed results. S&P 500 index closed at 1761, up 0.118%, Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.29%, while Nasdaq composite decreased 0.54% for the week.   

Sector rotation can be observed in the SELECT ranking table: Air transportation, wireless communication  defense, and natural gas have been gaining momentum while automotive, technology and biotech have lost their shine. FBIOX was pushed out of the rank 7 in SELECT ranking table and a trading signal was issued in our model portfolio to sell the fund and buy into the current number one ranked fund, FSAIX. We have hold FBIOX for about 6 months with a gain of 16%. 

S&P 500 index is trading near the top of the rising channel as shown in the weekly chart below. Past experience has told us that stocks marched in a waved pattern and has never gone up in straight line. A slowdown or pull back is deemed to happen, however, severe and prolonged down turn is nowhere to be seen at this moment.
