SSTREET: Buy KRE and KBE

State Street Sector Model (SSTREET): Two Changes

Buy Banks KBE and Regional Banking KRE

As a refresher, the State Street Sector Model SSTREET monitors the relative strength relationships between each of the sector and industry ETFs in the model universe versus the S&P 500 Index SPX on a 6.5% scale. ETFs that are showing positive relative strength versus the SPX (measured by a column of Xs) are included in the model and are removed only when that relationship reverses into Os. Over the past week of trading, the respective RS charts comparing the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF KRE and the SPDR S&P Bank ETF KBE versus the S&P 500 Index reversed up into Xs, warranting their additions to the SSTREET model holdings. This model remains fully invested through sector-based ETFs within the broader State Street family of ETFs and is evaluated on a weekly basis. The number of holdings can vary based on sector leadership within changing markets, and with the addition of XRT, the model is equally weighted across 14 positions at 7.14% each. Year-to-date, the SSTREET model is up 15.31%, outperforming the S&P 500's return of 9.74% (through 11/10).
