S&P 500 Sector Stats

As shown below, Consumer Discretionary and Consumer Staples are currently trading the farthest above their 50-day moving averages of the ten sectors.  The other two sectors currently above their 50-days are Industrials and Financials.  Below we provide the year-to-date change, % from 50-DMA, dividend yield, P/E ratio, price to sales ratio, and price to book ratio for the various sectors.  Across the board, we use red to green as the color code from lowest to highest, but obviously for ratios, the lower the better. 

While it used to have one of the highest yields, the Financial sector currently has the second lowest yield at 1.15%.  It also has the highest P/E ratio at 66.44, but it has the lowest price to book at 1.14.  Consumer Staples, Consumer Discretionary, and Telecom have the lowest price to sales ratios, while Technology has the highest.  Technology also has the highest price to book.

The modern replica watches comes housed in a black plastic case with stainless steel lugs at each side. The black wristband is nicely crafted from leather tag replicas
