COMMENTARY

Price/volume action also suggests a higher level of institutional selling (as distribution days are starting to pile up) and OEW notes that the uptrend appears to be weakening.

Fundamentally speaking, 2016 Q1 earnings estimates indicate negative growth and have continued to be revised lower for the past three months (i.e. a decline of 1.1% was expected 3 months ago, whereas the decline in earnings is estimated to be 10.3% today, per Zacks.com).

Again, watch for weakness in your holdings (high-volume selling, etc.), and prune as necessary.
