Overview
What is Sectors & Industries on MrChart?
Sectors and Industries shows how each part of the U.S. stock market is performing, from broad sectors down to individual industries. Summary cards name the best and worst sector and industry, and a sector map colours each area by its move, so you can see which parts of the market are leading and which are lagging.
The page has four tabs: performance, options flow, themes and seasonality. Performance covers the sectors and industries, options flow shows where options money went, themes cover ideas that cross sector lines, and seasonality shows how a sector has tended to behave across the calendar. It is a clear way to follow sector rotation.

Use the themes tab for ideas like new technologies that do not fit neatly inside one sector.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
What is sector rotation?
Sector rotation is the shift of money and attention from one part of the market to another over time. The performance and options flow tabs help you see it as it develops.
What is the difference between a sector and an industry?
A sector is a broad group such as technology or energy, and an industry is a narrower group inside it. MrChart lets you move from the sector view down to the industries and then the stocks.
Does seasonality predict what a sector will do?
No. Seasonality shows how a sector behaved in past years, which is useful context but not a promise about the future.
