Since August 6, the market has completely flipped the script. Coming into today’s session:
- Stocks with the biggest share prices have been down the most and those with the lowest up the most.
- Stocks with the largest market caps have underperformed those with lowest caps by 7 percentage points.
- Companies with highest dividend yields are rocking versus those with lower yields.
And the biggest winners since the March 23 bottom to August 6 have underperformed the biggest laggards.
