For those of you keeping score, here's the year-to-date breakdown of S&P 500 sector performance:

Not pretty.
Making matters worse for long-only perma-bulls, volume has been lackluster (at best) on up days and rips on the down days.

This doesn't bode well for anyone who's doubled-down on Old Wall "wisdom" of buying the dip as equities went down, down, down.
Our subscribers? They're doing just fine.

Here's a snippet from a note Keith sent to subscribers this morning.
"... Our Top 3 Long Ideas in Macro right now remain: USD, Utilities (XLU), and The Long Bond – 10yr in the US about to break the 2.00% yield level again as German and Japanese 10s chase to lower-lows of 0.42% and 0.21%, respectively."
Incidentally, XLU is crushing it year-to-date (up +1.3%) compared to the S&P 500 (down -7.7%). Check out sector performance in the chart above ... the sole green line ... Yup --> Utilities.
Checking in on U.S. Treasuries. After today's Durable Goods bomb, the 10-year broke 2%. A nice call from McCullough earlier this morning.
