Latest 12 Month Sector ETF Forecasts

Below are the latest sector ETF forecasts for March 2016 through March of 2017. Each forecast was generated with a unique set of independent factors and relies on fundamental economic data. Utilities and Industrials are expected to remain weak over the next year though Materials and Financials may provide outperforming returns. Forecasts for XLK and XLE are still in development and could be significantly revised when new projections are updated in April/May. Backtested results are still forthcoming though preliminary tests suggest that relying on these forecasts (starting in 2011) would have been a very profitable strategy, and in some cases would have generated 2x-3x+ returns over a buy and hold strategy.
