US sectors, strength based on 150 day SMA slope

Based on the slope, and last Friday's data I have this:

Code:

Sr     Symbol     Name                                     150MA slope %pa.
1    XLU    Utilities Select Sector SPDR ETF    10    
2    XLRE    Real Estate Select Sector SPDR             4    
3    XLV    Health Care Select Sector SPDR ETF     3    
4    XLY    Consumer Discret Sel Sect SPDR ETF     2    
5    XLK    Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF     2    
6    XLP    Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR ETF    -4    
7    XLF    Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF       -14    
8    XLI    Industrial Select Sector SPDR ETF      -14    
9    XLE    Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF           -16    
10    XLB    Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF       -20

Breath charts for utilities, consumer staples (breadth is for consumer goods) and healthcare.  Note, these are from pools of stocks in my database so the sectors won't have all constituents, there may be errors etc.  Can needs to be taken with the consumer staples chart, the breadth is from consumer goods - so there is somewhat of a breadth plot missmatch.  However, I've included it as the breadth is clearly the strongest.
           

Addendum: My consumer good breadth data is from only 37 stocks. Suspect this is still a rough indication unless it is skewed in some way like mainly large caps (it likely is).
