Last week's sector update concluded that the viii major sectors of the S&P 500 that I runway had moved solidly into an uptrend mode, amongst defensive sectors lagging too signs of conduct chances appetite on the rise. With Friday's enterprise rally, nosotros saw upside breakouts across many sectors, continuing the marketplace uptrend. Here's how Technical Strength (a quantification of short-term trending) looks for the viii sectors every bit of Friday's close:

INDUSTRIAL: +340
