Leading sectors for the week were Materials (NYSEARCA:XLB) Financials (NYSEARCA:XLF) and Consumer Discretionary (NYSEARCA:XLY)
Bottom line: A “look under the hood” at Weekly ETF Winners and leading sectors tells us that “risk on” assets were favored, particularly recently beaten down sectors like financials, materials and gold.
