XLF has heavy resistance ahead

Jan 9, 2023

No thesis here beyond:
* I'm bearish on the overall stock market, and
* XLF seems to be testing the top of a bearish trendline.

I am not taking a position on this, but I look forward to seeing if it's down by mid-February.

Note

So far it only rose 4.7% higher than it was when I posted this idea, and is nearly back where it started. So far it's a nothingburger. Will continue to monitor. It's retesting the breakout from the trendline over the next few weeks.
