Will Bad ‘Breadth’ Make For A Rotten 2016? Watch Equal-Weight S&P 500 ETF

FYI: Whether the S&P 500 finishes higher or lower for the year today, investors should be watching for bad “breadth” in 2016.

    @Ted: My equal weight consumer staples RHS beat out market weighted XLP by about 6%. I own both. The seem to have a somewhat negative correlation, alternating who does better in a given year, thats why I ended up with both. These are my ballast funds which tend do ok in down years.
