The Top Stock in the Top ETFs

To view this email as a web page, go [here.]( [Power Trends] The Top Stock in the Top ETFs After three crummy months from August through October, November was an absolute barn burner for stocks. It was the third strongest November in the last 43 years, with the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq all up 9% to 10%. The 15 stocks currently in our [TradeSmith Investment Report]( portfolio surged 13.6% on average, including four that galloped ahead more than 20%. Coming out of the painful October selling may have dulled our sense of just how phenomenal last month was. And the same data that can help us appreciate November’s magnitude also tells us that more big gains are headed our way. Big Money Is Flowing I’ve been watching the markets and stocks for a long time, but even I was surprised at how quickly things turned when the calendar flipped from Halloween to Nov. 1. My system tracks what Big Money is doing with its... well, money, even though Big Money tries to disguise it. My unique vantage point matching up institutional buyers and sellers gave me rare insight into how Big Money operates and how to spot what it’s doing and where it’s going. On Nov. 1, unusually large selling all but vanished and gave way to serious buying. It’s still remarkable to see the Big Money sell signals (red bars) shrink to virtually nothing, while the Big Money buy signals (green bars) got larger and larger. MAPsignals.com The brutal selling was characterized by huge volume, which is normal. When selling hits, everyone sells. November’s huge bounce was also on big volume, which is more unusual. Buying is typically on smaller volumes than selling that spread out over a longer period of time. But last month, Big Money flooded back into stocks big time. Money is moving into stocks. Market interest rates are falling, even with the Fed not cutting those rates yet. And when it does, we should be in for a big and sustained run into stocks. The [$6 trillion cash bubble]( is about to burst. In fact, the bursting may have begun. RECOMMENDED LINK [We’re In The Final Inning Of America’s First-Ever Cash Bubble... Are You Ready?]( A former hedge fund manager who is known for helping the ultra-elite protect their portfolios from massive wealth shifts has uncovered a bubble you NEED to know about. Rookies will scroll past thinking that they’re safe from this bubble. But tens of billions have been pouring into money market funds every week in 2023, which should be setting off alarm bells right now. We’re in the final stretch before this bubble pops.

ETFs are not always the best investment, because you have to own all of the stocks in it – including the laggards. But they are useful snapshots of what’s going on in the market. With that in mind, let’s look at the top-ranked ETFs in my system. #1 iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (IGV) As the name says, this ETF invests in North American stocks in the software industry, as well as select other stocks in home entertainment and media and services. IGV surged 16% in November to its highest price in nearly two years. The ETFs Quantum Score (my system’s proprietary ranking) is excellent at 76.5. Anything in the 70 to 85 range is generally a good buy with additional upside likely. The largest holding is Microsoft (MSFT), which constitutes 9.5% of the fund. And Microsoft itself rates exceptionally well, especially for such a massive company – a $2.8 trillion market cap. Microsoft’s Quantum Score is a robust 81. The fundamentals are solid and the technicals very strong. Big Money was active in the stock in November, as you can see by all those green buy signals. MAPsignals.com #2 iShares MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF (MTUM) This is an interesting one, and it shows what kind of November we had. MTUM is a momentum ETF investing in large- and mid-cap stocks with strong price momentum. Its Quantum Score of 76.4 is just a fraction lower than IGV, and its 9.2% November run didn’t equal the software ETFs performance. Still, its fundamentals and technicals rate similarly to IGV. And the largest holding in the portfolio is… Microsoft again. It makes up 5.04% of MTUM, a share more than Amazon’s (AMZN) 5.02% weighting. By the way, Amazon’s Quantum Score is much lower at 65.5 due to weaker fundamentals. #3 First Trust Expanded Technology ETF (XPND) No surprise here. Technology is top-ranked sector in my system, and the two ETFs above First Trust Expanded Technology ETF are also riding tech stocks higher. XPND’s Quantum Score largely keeps pace at 75.3. The fundamentals actually score better than IGV and MTUM, while the technicals are slightly weaker. And by now I’m sure you’ve guessed that the largest holding here is also MSFT, at a 5.02% weighting. Look for tech stocks to lead the run higher – and look for tech stocks with strong fundamentals and technicals with Big Money flowing in. Microsoft qualifies, and there are other highly rated stocks that shot even higher in November than MSFT’s 12% gain. I look for that to continue, as well.
