Should you worry about the Dow’s divergence?

Tuesday, June 13, 2023

While developed-market indices typically move in tandem, anxiety over recessions and monetary policy have splintered some of these relationships. And though the unusual behaviour is also present at the sector and stock-specific level, something could be brewing in North America.
The Canadian and U.S. stock markets are highly correlated. And whereas the energy and materials sectors have higher weightings in the TSX Composite, financials and industrials are bellwethers of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and the TSX. Due to their geographical proximity and the fact that more than 75% of Canadian exports are sent to the U.S., the DJIA and the TSX tend to follow in each other’s footsteps.

However, as the DJIA races toward its 2022 and 2023 highs, the TSX has not shown the same enthusiasm. If you analyse the right side of the chart, you can see that the latter has languished recently. The TSX’s weakness is often an ominous indicator for the DJIA, so a continuation of the theme could spell trouble in the days and weeks ahead.

S&P 500 seasonality turns bearish in mid-June, and the index usually bottoms near the end of the month. But, with the June low often beneath the May low, a breach of 4,050 would not be out of the ordinary.

Are the TSX’s struggles a bad sign for the DJIA, or can the rally continue?

Investing in CFDs involves a high degree of risk that you will lose your money due to the use of leverage, particularly in fast moving markets, where a relatively small movement in the price can lead to a proportionately larger movement in the value of your investment. This can result in loses that exceed the funds in your account. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and you should seek independent advice if necessary.
