ROTATION GRAPH

The Rotation Graph shows relative price performance by sector, and then drills down into the constituent industry group performance, and individual stock performance.

Reading the Rotation Graph

Distance along the vertical y-axis represents short-term, 4-week momentum. Distance along the horizontal x-axis represents long-term, 26-week relative performance. On the graph, each sector/industry group/stock is visually represented by a “tadpole” where the “head” of the tadpole shows the current position on the graph and the “tail” shows the trailing four weeks’ performance. The direction and placement of each tadpole are always plotted relative to the All O’Neil Index (zero axis) first. Then, the tadpoles can be related to one another also based on their direction and placement.

 

Sectors and industry groups plotted in the Rotation Graph are market-cap weighted. Stocks are plotted on price performance.

 

The O’Neil All Index

The O’Neil All Index is a market-capitalization weighted index encompassing all stocks in the countries covered by the O’Neil Global Focus List products.

 

Country-specific Rotation Graphs are plotted relative to their respective O’Neil Indices. For example, the Brazil Rotation Graph is plotted relative to the O’Neil All Brazil Index, which contains all stocks in the O’Neil Brazil database.

 

The Global Rotation Graph is plotted relative to the O’Neil All World Index.
