Markets continue to shift beneath the surface. Domestic equities still hold the top spot in the rankings, but international stocks are closing the gap fast, and sector leadership has flipped once again. Communications has surged back into the #1 position, technology has rebounded from its recent pullback, and healthcare has staged an impressive recovery. Meanwhile, former leader utilities have fallen off sharply as the AI-driven energy demand narrative cools.
In this episode of Today’s Market Explained, Brian Kasal and Chris Reardon break down fresh data on market leadership, sector rotations, and the surprising strength (and weaknesses) hidden under headline returns. From equal-weight outperformance and the tech rebound to tax-loss selling pressures and the December Fed decision, they explore the major forces shaping investor behavior this month.
📌 Valuable Insights You’ll Learn:
- Why communications and tech have reclaimed leadership — and why utilities have rolled over
- What equal-weight outperformance reveals about market breadth
- How memory chip shortages are slowing AI adoption and delaying major projects
- Why healthcare is suddenly a top performer after a long slump
