MATT MCALEER'S WEEKLY RECAP

As part of Cumberland Advisors' continuous effort to maintain strong customer relationships, we offer this week's short video discussing current market conditions and how we are positioning portfolios.

Interesting week in the equity market. A couple of things jump out at us. Continued strength in the equal weighted indexes vs. cap weighted. We like to see that. That's showing capital spreading out in the market. What else we noticed and like to see is some underperforming sectors like energy and financials getting a little bid in here.

There are multiple ways to trade a tough position. Financials! The "dogs" of the last 24-36 months. We look at them. And how things relate to pricing power.
