RUT - Leading indicator for the S&P

TVC:RUT   US Small Cap 2000 Index
The Russel has yet to hit new highs while the market keeps climbing. This is usually a bearish sign but has seen 2 fake-outs in the 10 year trend line where the RUT is simply under-performing the S&P.

Once the multiyear trend line is breached there is a heightened risk of recession.

The XLK is moving the market just like what we seen in the dotcom era. What we seen back then was a failure in tech and a heavy increase in the XLE. So watch for a trend flip in tech vs energy.

The home builders, small caps, and financials are the first to decline in a recession. These are all declining while the market moves upward.....

Also if oil and natural gas (XLE) start to do well this will be a leading indicator that there is a recession upcoming.

I think the start of this will be the rise in commodity prices. The laggers will become the leaders. Watch for an upturn in the DBC and the XLE.
