The Day Hagan/Ned Davis Research Smart Sector® with Catastrophic Stop strategy entered this month recommending a fully invested position. The NDR Catastrophic Stop model is based on the combination of two proprietary composites: 1) the Internal Composite (technical and price-related indicators) and 2) the External Composite (fundamental, economic, interest rate, and behavioral/sentiment indicators). Each composite is one-half of the overall score.
The sector model maintained mixed leadership this month. Entering December, Consumer Discretionary, Financials, and Utilities are above benchmark weight. Communication Services improved to marketweight. Information Technology, Real Estate, Industrials, Materials, Energy, Consumer Staples, and Health Care are below benchmark weight.
