Most sectors edged higher, digesting gains from the sizable rally on Thursday. Overbought conditions prevail in most ETF markets - both above and below the 200-day moving average
Here are 7 ETFs You Need to Know for Tuesday.
Moving higher again on Monday, the PowerShares QQQ Trust ETF (QQQQ | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) climbed into increasingly overbought territory above the 200-day moving average. The rally makes the QQQQ all the more vulnerable to short-term pullbacks.
Conversely, the PowerShares UltraShort QQQ ETF (QID | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) closed lower for a fourth consecutive day, retreating from overbought conditions below the 200-day from a week ago.
The most impressive sector performance on Monday came from consumer discretionary stocks as shares from Ford Motor Company (F | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) and Darden Restaurants (DRI | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) were among those in greatest demand. The buying in this sector helped boost the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLY | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) up by more than 1% intraday.
Up for a third day in a row and moving deeper into overbought territory below the 200-day moving average is the ProShares Ultra Financials ETF (UYG | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating). Rallying toward a challenge of its 200-day moving average and increasingly overbought is the Regional Bank HOLDRS (RKH | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating).
The rally in long-term government debt continued on Monday, as the iShares Barclays 20+ Year Bond ETF (TLT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) climbed into overbought territory below the 200-day moving average.
Pulling back sharply on Monday was the CurrencyShares Japanese Yen Trust ETF (FXY | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating), which tracks the value of the Japanese yen, rather than the price of the forex pair, USD/JPY.
