Back To Overbought
After trading at some of the most extreme oversold levels we've seen in years back in April during the tariff crash, major US index ETFs have all moved in lock-step up into overbought territory with the exception of the Dow 30, which has been weighed down by a 48% drawdown in UnitedHealth (UNH) since April 11th.
The Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) is the only one that's at "extreme overbought" levels, which means it's more than two standard deviations above its 50-DMA.Even the micro-cap ETF (IWC) has rallied more than 7% over the last week.

We highlighted the very low percentage of stocks above their 50-day moving averages when it got down to extreme levels back in April, and now we're seeing extremes on the upside for a few sectors.As shown below, more than 90% of stocks in the Technology and Industrials sectors were above their 50-DMAs heading into today. In today's Chart of the Day sent to members, we looked at how the Tech sector has historically done in the weeks and months after prior extreme readings for this breadth indicator.It's an interesting analysis.
