ROTATION SCANNER | June 4, 2026
$XBI +3.0%. $XLF +2.5%. $SOXX -2.9%. $XLK -2.0%. The great rotation. Out of tech. Into everything else.
Leader: $XBI (Biotech) +3.0%
Laggard: $USO (Oil) -3.3%
Spread: 6.3%
The entire leadership of the market flipped overnight.
For two weeks: tech led, semis surged, momentum dominated, biotech and financials sold. Today: biotech leads, financials surge, healthcare rallies, semis crash, tech sells, momentum unwinds. The rotation is complete.
$AVGO beat last night. Revenue $22.2B, up 48% year-over-year. Q3 guidance $29.4B, up 84%. The number was strong. $SOXX is down 2.9% today. The $NVDA pattern repeats. Beat the number. Sell the stock. The institutional tape sold $AVGO for weeks heading into this print. They were positioned.
SECTORS
$XLF (Financials) +2.5%
$XLV (Healthcare) +2.0%
$XLE (Energy) +0.3%
$XLK (Technology) -2.0%
Financials at +2.5%. The largest $XLF move in weeks. Healthcare at +2.0%. Tech at -2.0%. The sector that led the market for two months is now the only one selling. The old economy sectors that were lagging for weeks are surging.
FACTORS
$QUAL (Quality) +0.7%
$USMV (Min Vol) +0.5%
$VLUE (Value) -1.0%
$MTUM (Momentum) -1.7%
Momentum crashing at -1.7%. Quality leading at +0.7%. When momentum sells and quality leads, the market is rotating out of the crowded winners and into fundamentals. The semi/AI trade was the most crowded momentum trade of 2026. Today it's unwinding. Min vol positive means defensives are bid. That's a regime shift.
THEMATIC
$XBI (Biotech) +3.0%. Session leader.
$ITA (Defense) +0.8%
$IGV (Software) -0.2%
$SOXX (Semis) -2.9%
$XBI leading for the first time this month. Biotech is the direct beneficiary of falling oil and falling yields. Lower oil means lower inflation means lower rate expectations means biotech financing costs drop. The rate-sensitive trade is working.
$SOXX -2.9%. Post-$AVGO sell the news. The semi run from $NVDA through $MRVL through $AVGO was driven by three consecutive earnings beats. All three stocks sold after the beat. The market rewards the capex confirmation and then rotates the capital elsewhere.
$IGV -0.2%. Software nearly flat after four days of extreme moves (+5.3%, +5.2%, -3.3%, -4.0%). The software volatility is compressing.
MACRO
$SLV (Silver) +0.9%
$GLD (Gold) +0.7%
$TLT (Bonds) +0.3%
$USO (Oil) -3.3%. Session laggard.
Oil crashing -3.3%. WTI at $92.98. Gold, silver, and bonds all green. The entire rate-sensitive macro shelf is positive. Oil falling is the catalyst: lower oil, lower inflation expectations, lower yields, rate-sensitive assets rally.
The internals said 2.08x breadth, the strongest of the series. The Nasdaq is red. The scanner confirms: the market is not selling. It's rotating. Out of tech. Into financials, healthcare, biotech, quality, defensives, gold, silver, bonds. Everything that was lagging for two months is leading today. Everything that was leading is selling.
The great rotation. Week thirteen.
