受利率上升和零售疲弱影响，XLY处于确认的下跌趋势中；死亡交叉预示形态沉重，需要时间才能扭转。

Consumer discretionary, I talked about interest rates on the rise. And these discretionary, particularly retail-related stocks, are getting hit. We are still very much in a confirmed downtrend and then we have these shorter term moving averages closing below the longer term. This is 21 day down through the 200 and that is noted as a death cross. Quite simply, it creates a heavier pattern so that in an effort to reverse it, it will take a little bit longer but certainly we are seeing weakness in that discretionary area.
