The Market's Most Important Growth Stocks: Dave's Dirty Dozen
Mega-cap growth stocks are doing a lot of the heavy lifting in the stock market. While several of the biggest names continue to hold up well, much of the rest of the S&P 500 has been losing momentum. This is why it's important to monitor the market leaders.
In this video, Dave Keller introduces “Dave’s Dirty Dozen,” a group of 12 growth stocks and ETFs he checks every trading day to get a quick read on where leadership is strengthening and where cracks may be starting to appear.
Dave walks through names including Apple (AAPL), NVIDIA (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT), Meta Platforms (META), Micron Technology (MU), Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Broadcom (AVGO), and Tesla (TSLA), sorting them into three categories: strong uptrends, sideways consolidations, and distribution phases.
The goal is to understand which growth stocks are still attracting buyers, which are pausing, and which may be showing early signs of weakness.
Dave also demonstrates how he uses CandleGlance charts, Relative Rotation Graphs (RRGs), performance tables, and a customized StockCharts dashboard to help you spot the strongest and weakest charts in a watchlist or your portfolio.
Do today’s market leaders still have enough strength to keep the broader market moving higher? This video might have the answer.
