Exxon Mobil (XOM)
The spread between technological and energy sector had reached the overvalued territory - the upper border of the Bollinger Bands indicator (parameter of 20 daily candlesticks). Usually, that’s a potential signal for starting a rotation between techs and energy stocks.
This spread may go down due to either a bearish pullback for techs or a bullish pullback for energies. The latter seems as a more realistic model given the improving market sentiment.
