The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) may be forming a new downtrend. The support at the important $423 level has been broken.
While cryptocurrencies and Big Tech are grabbing the headlines, many missed something important Thursday: the financial sector stocks made a huge move lower.
The Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:XLF) tracks the financial sector. And yesterday it dropped by almost 3%. This was the biggest one-day loss since the market crashed last February.
The financial sector was one of the leaders of the market rally that went from March through May. Now there’s a chance that it leads the market lower.
