The Economic Modern Family holds onto uncertainty and potential gridlock with a Biden Presidency and a Republican senate majority.

As such, certain sectors of the modern family did very well, while others not so much.

Anticipating that taxes will not increase and interest rates will stay low, the Families traditional superstar, Sister Semiconductors (SMH) not only made new all time highs, but had the largest percentage gain week to week.

While in stark contrast Regional Banks (KRE) eked out a small gain.

One could say that the difference between two siblings in the Family reflects the differences we are seeing as a country, both economically and politically.

Sister semiconductors, although a cyclical, have benefited from the speculative interest from investors.

Growth has prevailed over value, but as we know semiconductors are a part of the economy, but do not represent the true economy.

That is where Regional banks (KRE) Prodigal son comes in.

The regional banks more accurately measure the pulse of the money that is being borrowed and spent in the rural communities of the United States.

These banks also have relationships in oil and gas, a mainstay in many rural economies.

We could say that is because of the pandemic as tech has prospered with the stay at home environment, while oil and gas has taken the biggest hit.

So what does the rest of the Economic Family tell us?

Looking at the weekly chart of Grandad Russel (IWM) and layering in the election opening range where we buy over the weekly high and sell under the weekly low, Gramps over 165.71 should send prices higher and a move under 153.67 should send prices lower.

The challenging part of this, is what we do in the middle of that wide range.

Trade stocks in the IWM basket cautiously!

In the transportation sector we have a much more compelling opportunity as not only can we use the election range breakout, but it also had an inside trading week, trading inside the week before.

Therefore this might be the best place to focus on as a move above 207.30 should be bullish, while a move below 195.87 should be bearish.

Not as clean as IYT granny retail (XRT) also could be setting up with a buy over 54.24 and short under 50.

The trading range of Big Brother Biotechnology (IBB) has greatly impacted earnings and headlines, which makes it much more difficult to navigate.

Putting it all together, any level of optimism should bring buyers to our “inside” market sectors IWM, IYT, XRT.

Conversely, should the market turn over, SMH sticks out as the overvalued sector, once again.
