Immediately after the sale of UPL, the stock nearly doubled in price again.  Since the model adjusts the trading strategy based on how stocks perform even after a sale, the rotation process has been revised into a manner that would not have missed that opportunity.

I had been observing that potential change in the process, and the UPL miss was only the final verification – and a rather expensive one at that.

The short version of the story is that the median trade will increase to become more like the average trade – a hold of five and a half years.

In other news, the Sector Model remains firmly on the long term regression line – abnormally “normal”.  Something has to give. 



In Sector relationships, the market is both defensive and rising, the ultimate indecision.





     
Nothing to do at the moment but wait.
