Mark19 writes on A thoughtIs identifying an industry sector which will outperform the market Although the phrase "
will outperform the market" is problematic, there are a couple of easy to use tools available free at Stockcharts to identify regions, sectors or sub-sectors/industries that are trending stronger than "the market" and for the short term (next 3-5 weeks)
more likely than not to outperform the market, due to standard momentum & trend.
One is the sectors list, and using the simple SCTR number (Stockcharts Technical Rank) as a sort.
