Over one day Industrials (+3.6%), Technology (+3.4%) and Consumer Discretionary (+3.0%) led; Consumer Staples (+0.6%) and Energy (+0.9%) lagged. One week and one month favour defensives: Health Care (+9.9% 1m), Staples (+8.6%), Real Estate (+7.6%), while Technology is -14.3% over the month and Energy -7.5% over the week. Short-term leadership is growth/cyclical, medium-term defensive — a divergence.
