Despite the overshadow of trade tariffs, industrial stocks remain underpinned by a lower corporate tax rate (35% down to 21%), a push for increased 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:infrastructure spending and a strengthening U.S. housing market. Economic data also shows increased industrial activity. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Industrial production, which measures the value of output from manufacturers, mines and utilities, is up 5.1% 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:year over year as of September 2018. The sector should additionally benefit from early investor rotation into value names, robust profit forecasts and increased buyback activity.
Senior analyst at Wolfe Research Nigel Coe that he believes industrial stocks can maintain strong growth momentum while the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Federal Reserve's policy remains loose and supportive of growth. However, he cautioned that companies in the sector need to grow into their 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:earnings multiples – 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:forward earnings currently sit at 16.7 times as of October 2018. Price action also suggests that industrial stocks are at key 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:support levels. Three leading 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the sector have all b🌄ounced at critical technical ar🐓eas on their respective charts. Let's further analyze each fund.

ITA charges investors an annual 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:management fee of 0.43% and has returned 9.3% 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:year to date (YTD) as of October 2018. The recent pullback found support on the uptrend line the connects the early May and late June 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:swing lows. This $200 support level on the chart also finds support from the 200-day 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:simple moving average (SMA), making it a high-probability buying area. A 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:stop-loss order could be placed just below the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:candlestick that reversed on the trendline/moving average.
澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询ꩵ:Invesco DWA Industrials Momentum ETF (PRN)
The Invesco DWA Industrials Momentum ETF, also created in 2006, aims to provide similar returns to the DWA Industrials Technical Leaders Index.

As of October 2018, the fund has a -4.69% YTD return and charges a 0.6% management fee. PRN's chart appears to be forming a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:double bottom – the most recent swing low found support near the early May swing low at the $57 level. Short-term momentum looks to be moving back to the upside, with the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:relative strength index (RSI) crossing back above 30. Stops should be placed 🌠slightly below double bottom pattern to protect trading capital.
澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Fidelಞity MSCI Industrials ETF (FIDU)
Formed in 2013, the Fidelity MSCI Industrials ETF attempts to replicate the performance of the MSCI USA IMI Industrials Index. It holds companies that cover the broad U.S. industrials sector. The fund has a low 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:expense ratio of just 0.08%, well below the 0.5% category average. Performance wise, FIDU has returned -1.33% YTD. Although FIDU's share price is trading below the 200-day SMA, it found strong support from the uptrend line that commenced in early May. The recent bounce at the $37.5 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:support level has moved the RSI out of oversold territory and occurred on above-average volume. Traders who take a long position should protect it with a stop below th𒊎e most recent swing low.
