Hello Friends,
Welcome to this week’s edition of The Microcap Minute Global: US Markets, in a Microcap Minute. Every edition, we first look at the Sector RRG Charts, then shortlist companies from the sectors we like, before looking at the fundamentals of each of them.
Before I begin, a special mention to Mr Julius de Kempenaer, the creator of Relative Rotation Graphs (RRGs). Developed in 2004 to 2005, RRGs provided a remarkably intuitive way to visualise relative strength and momentum across groups of securities and, importantly, how those relationships change over time. The methodology first appeared on Bloomberg Professional Services in 2011 and was later introduced on StockCharts. Much of the framework I use in my RRG Analysis is what I have learnt from his public works.
Also, a special mention to Mr Kris Gunnars, Founder and CEO of StockAnalysis.com. Without his support, the Microcap Minute Global would not have become a reality.
Quick Heads up: Tables and charts are high resolution. Zoom to enlarge.
So, let’s begin.
1. THE US SECTOR MAP
Every week I read a Relative Rotation Graph, using charts courtesy of StockCharts.com, of the eleven US sector funds against the S&P 500. On every ticker I look for a long tail. Trajectory matters more than position, so I favour names moving north east, in Leading or Improving.

One sector came up this week: Industrials.
