Across Every Market: Indexes, Sectors, and Global Benchmarks

A Broader Look at acuTRADE

DJI, INTC, and QQQ each proved the framework works on a single benchmark, a single stock, and a single ETF. This piece asks a different question: does the same discipline hold up across an entire universe at once, US broad market indexes, US sector ETFs, international developed markets, and emerging markets, all tracked side by side, using the same rules, the same size, the same standard of verification.

Part One: The Performance Record

(Data as of September 11, 2026)

Thirty-two major indexes and sector ETFs are currently tracked under this framework, spanning four categories: US broad market benchmarks, US sector ETFs, international developed markets, and emerging markets. Every entry, every staged profit-taking event, and every current position reflects real prices from real charts.

Standout Results

• KOSPI (South Korea): Entered at 2,618.66, staged gains of 22.2% and 57.5%, current ROI 164%
• FTSE MIB (Italy): Entered at 23,849.39, staged gains of 37.4% and 43.3%, current ROI 120.3%
• DAX (Germany): Entered at 13,868.93, staged gains of 32.4% and 61.0%, current ROI 84.4%
• TSX (Canada): Entered at 20,304.84, a full three-stage SP-O sequence (20.9%, 46.7%, 49.3%), current ROI 75.9%
• Nikkei 225 (Japan): Entered at 38,152.33, a full three-stage SP-O sequence (23.2%, 50.6%, 72.9%), current ROI 67.8%
• XLF (Financial Select Sector): Entered at 34.26, staged gains of 19.0% and 37.5%, current ROI 67.2%
• XLK (Technology Select Sector): Entered at 119.10, staged gains of 23.2% and 55.5%, current ROI 57.6%

Several names, the UK’s FTSE 100, Japan’s Nikkei 225, and Canada’s TSX among them, reached a full three-stage SP-O sequence, the same 50% / 40% / 10% staged discipline already documented in the DJI, INTC, and QQQ records, now confirmed working the same way on entirely different exchanges, currencies, and market structures.

Part Two: What the Framework Is Showing Right Now

(Data as of September 11, 2026)

Separate from the performance record above, which reflects closed and open positions already in progress, this section reflects a single point-in-time snapshot of acuPHASE’s current reading across all thirty-two names. This is not a forecast, and it does not predict what will happen next. It is a factual account of where each market currently sits.

A Broad, Not Isolated, Shift

As of this snapshot, 20 of the 32 indexes and sector ETFs tracked are currently reading Warning, Distribution, or Bearish, not Bullish. This shift spans every category tracked, not one isolated corner of the market:

• US Broad Market: The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Russell 2000 (small caps) are both reading Warning, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 continue to read Bullish.
• US Sector ETFs: Utilities is reading Bearish and Consumer Staples is reading Distribution.
• International Developed Markets: The UK, Germany, and Japan are all reading Warning together, and Hong Kong is reading Bearish.
• Emerging Markets: India is reading Bearish.

A Historical Parallel

A similar structural setup, a strong, sustained bull market with real complacency building underneath it, preceded the 2007 to 2008 period. Reviewing the framework’s own historical output from that stretch shows a real, multi-month divergence between acuPHASE’s histogram and price itself: both DJI and the Utilities sector saw the histogram declining, making lower highs, for an extended period before the actual structural top confirmed. That divergence is a checkable, historical fact, not a claim about what today’s divergence means.

Whether today’s setup resolves the same way, resolves differently, or the current divergence closes and broader strength resumes, is not something this framework predicts. What it can show, with full transparency, is exactly how it navigated the last time market conditions looked structurally similar to this.
