The following chart reflects historical mid cap sector scores.
The top mid cap industry is semi equipment & materials (TER, SPIL, ENTG). That’s unsurprising given that seasonal performance tailwinds for semi’s tend to mirror the seasonality of the SEMI book-to-bill ratio, which typically begins improving from her through mid year. Application software (LOCK, MANH, NUAN), technical & system software (TYL, CDNS, ACIW), industrial electrical (LFUS, RBC, AOS), and specialty chemicals (CBT) are also high scoring.
The strongest scoring industries in basics are specialty chemicals and synthetics (CMP). In consumer, only packaging and containers (BMS, TUP) score high. Regional banks (FHN, ASB, CATY, OZRK, NPBC, FFIN), investment brokers (MKTX), and REITs (REG, NNN, BMR, CLI) are top scoring in financials. The best healthcare industries are medical instruments (PODD, THOR, PKI, HRC, HAE), healthcare plans (CNC, HNT), and scientific & technical instruments (BRKR, COHR). In services, buy business services (GPN, HPY, CMPR, RBA), auto dealers (CPRT), and technical services (CACI). The strongest technology industries are semi equipment & materials, application software, and technical & system software.
