'Buy the dip' has been working well, however the latest 'buy the dip' has changed its stripes, it a little different from the rest.
There three buy the dips marked on the charts below (A, B, C), both A and B show the SPDR Consumer Discretionary (XLY) being a leader of relative strength, however C shows SPDR Utilities as the leader of relative strength, and not buy a little, look at the explosion of relative strength into XLU. This means institutions see more value in electric companies with there stable dividends than the higher flying consumer good companies.
This real sector rotation, if you research minor and major market tops of the most recent past this type of rotation is not new.
