Energy's inverse grip on stock market hits record high
Original: Energy's inverse grip on stock market hits a record high (XLE:NYSEARCA)
The inverse correlation between the energy sector, tracked by the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLE), and the broader stock market has reached a record high. As energy stocks climb, the rest of the market tends to move the opposite way, a divergence now at its most extreme on record. Analysts see this as a sign of how dominant oil and gas dynamics have become in shaping overall equity performance.
Why now: The strength of the inverse relationship between energy stocks and the wider market is at an unprecedented level, drawing attention from investors tracking sector rotation.
