2009 In One Graph

I apologize for the crowdedness of this chart, but it shows the relative strength of the ten S&P 500 industry groups for this year.

Here are a few items I noticed. I’m surprised to see the continued strength of tech stocks this year. The trend hasn’t let up. Financial stocks had a huge turnaround since the March bottom, but peaked in mid-October and have been trending lowering ever since. I’m surprised how weak utility stocks have been this year.
