Stock Market Performance Charts; Year to Date

Tuesday, March 3, 2009 21:09

I’m sure that the chart below  comes as no surprise. Each of the major industry groups are down for the year. Banks and brokers are down 49% and 20.50% respectively.

The following chart contains the same industry groups as the previous but instead of plotting absolute performance, we focus on relative performance (Each industry group relative to the S&P 500).  Most of these groups are actually out performing the S&P 500 year-to-date. Internet/Tech stocks are the strongest on this relative basis.
