Leadership is not the same as breadth.

The leader can make the market look healthier than the typical sector. Removing it leaves an average one-month return of -4.1%.

Technology+3.2%
Energy+1.1%
Communication-0.5%
Financials-2.8%
Healthcare-4.1%
Consumer staples-4.3%
Materials-4.8%
Real estate-5.5%
Consumer discretionary-6.4%
Utilities-6.6%
Industrials-6.7%

The useful question is whether the middle of the market follows the winner. Today the median sector is -4.3%.

What sits under the index?
