SMO Exclusive: Strength Report Electronics Sub-Industry Partial 2024-04-25
Following up my 4/25/24 Technology Sector Strength report, attached is a unique, simple-yet-detailed look at stocks in 3 Electronics Industry sub-industries: Semiconductors - ๐น Broad Line, ๐น Integrated Circuits, ๐น Specialized.
These 3 sub-industries have 44 stocks. Each stock is ranked below based on their strength. I apply this same objective strength ranking system to the market, 29 industries, 198 sub-industries, and 2,667 stocks in my universe to help those interested in using strength as a key component of their systems clearly and objectively discern where there is existing and emerging strength in the U.S. market.
Itโs not the only way, but it is one logical way to look at the market. And it follows the tenets that
๐น the market does not need to be so complicated,
๐น the stronger your stocks, the greener your P&L,
๐น the multi-week rally begins with one up week,
๐น 100% returns start as 10% returns,
๐น you wonโt find what you arenโt looking for.

SO WHAT?
Whether you buy strength and sell weakness or buy weakness and sell strength, objectively important information you want is here.
Unlike other methods, this one automatically builds in sub-industry and industry strength, as noted above.
Once you layer in the current market environment status โ I use the Market Strength Score, which currently states No New Shorts โ you get the green light to pull the trigger, depending on exactly what you are doing.
