ETF Spotlight: Health Care SPDR ($XLV): Approaching Major Confluence of Resistance ~ 58.50
A leader over the past few years (thanks partly to the biotech boom), the Health Care SPDR ($XLV) has been beaten up pretty good over the past month (thanks partly to the biotech collapse). The current bounce off its April lows has it approaching a major confluence of resistance around the 58.50 level:
Key impediments around that level include"
- Post-March Down Trendline
- 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement of Post-March Decline
- 50-Day Simple Moving Average
This will be a tough area to get through, especially with the post-bubble popping effects of the biotech stocks. If, of course, it is able to sustain a break above that level, it would be a significant display of strength.
