From a long-term trend perspective, no doubt the trend in both of the charts above is down (lower highs and lower lows and below long-term moving averages). If one is a trend follower, we doubt these ideas are of interest to you.
If one likes to buy low in hard hit sectors with tight stop loss parameters, we find both of these charts very interesting at this time, due to being out of favor and testing key support levels.
