XLV gained 18bps last week, trading relatively flat for the second straight week and holding above all key moving averages including
support at its 200-DMA ($130.75). Support below this level remains the rising 21-DMA ($130.28). The next level of resistance is ~$135.
Its RS line has remained sideways for the trailing three-weeks, but has yet to make a significant move higher, which still warrants an
equal-to underweight sector positioning.
