On this episode of DecisionPoint, Carl walks viewers through the market and the DecisionPoint indicators on the broad markets, as well as the S&P 400/600. Get his thoughts on shrinking participation! He covers 10-year yield and long Bonds (TLT), along with Bitcoin, Crude Oil, the Dollar and Gold. Erin shows us how to use a sector CandleGlance and looks "under the hood" at Utilities, comparing participation within to leaders Consumer Discretionary (XLY) and Technology (XLK); the results will surprise you! Finally she shares two "Diamonds of the Week".
