Bullish Candle in Health Care as Key Conference Begins
The SPDR Health Care ETF Health care has pulled back after a sharp rally in December. Some interesting patterns are also appearing on the chart.
First, XLV stands out because it was the first major sector fund to go positive yesterday. Its 1 percent gain also made it the top performer in the session.
Second, the bounce followed a drop to a one-month low and took out Friday’s high. That kind of large bullish outside candle is a potential reversal pattern. It could mark the end of a six-day skid.
Next, it’s noteworthy that buyers stepped in to defend the 50-day simple moving average (SMA).
In addition, Monday’s low was near a previous high on November 26. A downward-sloping trendline along the highs of September and November could also be turning from old resistance to new support.
Finally, you have an active calendar. The 40th Annual J.P. Morgan HealthCare Conference takes place this week, followed by quarterly results from top holdings UnitedHealth (1/19) and Johnson & Johnson (1/25).
