The 1W/1M/3M basket columns are absolute returns. Relative return measures the same equal-weight basket against the S&P 500 over the common 30-calendar-day window. Missing history is shown as —; it is not filled with zero.
Four descriptive inputs for the current market; threshold labels are editorial summaries, not forecasts.
71.7% are above the 20DMA and 55.8% are above the 200DMA, which keeps breadth in the middle rather than fully healthy.
Leadership Defensive tilt Top three 30D return ranksTop three: Healthcare, Consumer Defensive, and Consumer Cyclical. 2 of 3 are in the defensive group and 1 are in the cyclical group; Energy is counted as neither. The 2-of-3 labels describe trailing returns, not money flows.
Risk Pricing Stressed VIX vs trailing 20-session realized volatilityVIX is 17.3 and trailing 20-session realized volatility is 8.9: a 8.4-point difference. Guarded and Stressed are editorial bands (4 and 8 points), not validated forecasts.
Yield Curve Barely Positive 10Y minus 2Y yield spread+33 bp (+0.33 percentage points) on Oct 20, 2026. This is the current spread; its value alone does not identify what drove yields.
