Sectors, one session
Each bar is scaled against the widest move of the day. Tap a sector to see its largest names.
The S&P 500 rose 0.70% against 0.35% for the equal weight fund, a gap of 0.35 points. The index outpaced the average constituent, so the gain was narrower than the headline suggests.
Only 2 of 8 tracked indices sit above their 50-day average, even as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both rose. Participation stays thin relative to the price gains, and the VIX eased to 18.52.
Technology rose 1.69% and Industrials 1.42% while Communication Services fell 1.57%. That 3.26 point spread sits beneath a Dow gain of only 0.28%, well below the Nasdaq's 0.82%.
Akamai rose 5.31% with no stored evidence, and Strategy and GameStop fell with only filing headlines that do not explain the moves. These three remain unexplained.
Capitalisation weighted, so a move in the largest companies moves it more than a move in the smallest.
Every Nasdaq listing, weighted by capitalisation and heavy in technology.
Thirty names weighted by price rather than by capitalisation, so it can disagree with the S&P for arithmetic reasons alone.
Small capitalisation names. Read against the S&P, it is the size half of how broad a day was.
The same five hundred companies weighted equally, so the largest names count no more than the smallest. Read against the cap-weighted index, the gap is how much of the day belonged to the biggest companies.
The cap-weighted index outran the equal-weighted one, so the largest companies carried more of the session than their number.
This system's own composite of up to seven stored inputs, 0 (extreme fear) to 100 (extreme greed), computed after each close; not CNN's index (work item #699). Context for whether sentiment confirms the tape or contradicts it.
Expected thirty day volatility from S&P 500 options. Rising with the index is the contradiction worth seeing.
