As the market slips into the Easter long weekend, some profit-taking felt evident on Tuesday, no great surprise considering the index has rallied over 15% from its November low. The afternoon selling wasn’t overly aggressive, but as we touched on yesterday morning, the markets are a touch bullish and long; hence, some book-squaring/selling by the weak longs didn’t encounter any significant resistance. One of the main themes of 2024 to date has been the strong getting stronger and often the weak getting weaker, even as the ASX200 forged to fresh all-time highs. A quick glance at some sectors three months into the year tells the tale: remember, the index is up a healthy +2.5%.
