Sector Performance

I found a great way to track performance of the sectors which I want to post here. Click on table to enlarge.

You can do this table yourself by inserting the following string into the window called "Summaries" at www.investertech.com , and then clicking on "Performance". After the table comes up, you can click on various table headings for different time frames:

XLY XLP XLE XLF XLV XLI XLB XLK XLU SPY

This shows that year to date (YTD) only the XLB is positive and up less than 1% while all the other sectors are in the red. Technology (XLK) has faired the worst off -14.05% with Utilities (XLU) -6.34% and Energy (XLE) -5.79%.
