In this issue:

  • Indexes: S&P 500 and other primary indexes don’t tell us much, they are stagnant. But underneath the surface, some clarity is finally appearing.

  • ETFs: I see 3 increasingly dangerous equity market subsegments, and I discuss them via the charts below.

  • Stocks: my weekly review of the 20 largest S&P 500 member stocks produced some weak charts that back up my broader ETF scan, as well as some good-looking stocks that frankly surprised me.

  • Other timely stuff: I have some thoughts on shutdowns. That includes the US government, as well as some NFL stars, including 1 each from my 2 favorite teams, who will still be out when the federal workforce returns.
