IBD Industry Groups Bell Curve – Bullish Percent

Average Distribution: 32.42% (+1.23% 1wk)

• 142 Groups (71%) are in the Stage 4 zone
• 48 Groups (24%) are in the Stage 1 or Stage 3 zone
• 10 Groups (5%) are in the Stage 2 zone

The amount of groups in Stage 4 decreased by 9 (-4.5%), and the amount of groups in Stage 2 decreased by 1 (-0.5%), while the amount groups in Stage 1 or Stage 3 increased by 10 (+5%).

The average distribution is to the left of the center on the bell curve, and is deep in the Stage 4 zone (below 40%), and hence the bell curve remains in negative territory, which indicates a difficult trading environment.

However, it is starting to approach the levels of its 2022 major lows of 18.81% (June 17th 2022) and 17.60% (30 September 2022) – and remember that this is a contrarian market breadth tool, and so works in similar way to the Bullish Percent Index. i.e. we look for reversals from the extremes for signals.
