Stock Trends’ Unusually High Volume (
) indicator flags stocks whose weekly trading volume is at least 200% of their 13-week average. In the October 31 weekly reports, only a small slice of the universe qualifies—making these signals rare and valuable. When high volume coincides with a bullish trend state (or a new Bullish Crossover), it can mark institutional footprints at the start of a multi-week advance.

The easing of tensions between the world’s two largest economies has given markets a fresh narrative. By stepping back from new export restrictions and cutting key tariffs, the United States and China have removed some of the most disruptive threats hanging over global supply chains. For investors, this détente creates a backdrop of relative stability in which powerful price trends can resume and new trend leaders can emerge. The Stock Trends data provides a timely snapshot of where momentum is building and which industries stand to benefit most. In the weeks ahead, positioning portfolios to take advantage of this de-escalation while monitoring trend signals will be critical.

The market’s October tremor—an abrupt but short-lived flash crash—has given way to a familiar pattern in the Stock Trends framework: the rapid repair of breadth and the birth of new trends. Where panic once pressed prices indiscriminately, order is returning through a disciplined sequence of new bullish signals, rebuilding sectors, and the subtle reorganization of leadership beneath the surface.

Investors often compare performance to market indexes like the S&P 500, but traditional benchmarks have built-in biases. The S&P 500, for example, is heavily skewed toward large-cap stocks and “is not a good benchmark for measuring alpha” – it reflects a size-factor bias rather than pure manager skill. All major indexes systematically tilt toward certain factors (size, sector, value/growth, etc.), meaning they’re not truly passive representations of “the market.” In contrast, a benchmark based on randomly constructed portfolios avoids those biases. Random portfolios – essentially naïve baskets of stocks selected with no particular weighting scheme – provide a neutral point of reference for performance. In fact, Stock Trends has long advocated that “the only truly passive approach to the markets is one that employs random portfolio construction”, since it doesn’t favor any subset of stocks by design.

Sharp market selloffs are stressful… and useful. They create a live-fire laboratory where leadership quality is revealed in real time. In the Stock Trends framework, the most informative sequence is a stock that registers a New Weak Bullish (
) during the shock — a pullback statement in a bullish primary trend — and then, within a week, flips back to a Return to Strong Bullish (
). That transition is a powerful confirmation that buyers remain in control.

The Stock Trends Gauge of Investor Sentiment has long served as a vital compass for interpreting the emotional currents that drive markets. By measuring the distribution of Bullish and Bearish Stock Trends indicators across all New York Stock Exchange issues, this gauge transforms the abstract notion of “market mood” into a quantifiable, observable pattern of investor behavior. Over the past two decades, it has proven to be an uncanny mirror of investor psychology — revealing when fear gives way to opportunity, and when euphoria conceals risk.

There are weeks when the language of the market becomes unmistakable, even before it is broadly understood. The first week of October 2025 feels like such a moment. In the latest Stock Trends Picks of the Week, we observe not the frenzy of a mature bull market but something quieter, more deliberate — a low hum of recovery taking shape across the intricate lattice of trend indicators and portfolio signals. Stocks are beginning to speak the dialect of renewal: Weak Bearish reversals (
) turning gently toward Bullish Crossovers (
), and fresh Bullish patterns evolving into the confident lines of Bullish () continuity. The Stock Trends Portfolios, guided by the method’s weekly rhythm, have begun to reflect this inflection in their very composition — quietly repositioning toward leadership that is still embryonic.

The Select Bullish Crossover Portfolio strategy stands at the intersection of systematic inference and market timing. Each position is chosen from the Stock Trends Inference Model’s Select list—names whose probability of outperforming the base random return is favorable across 4, 13, and 40 weeks. From this foundation, the portfolio then isolates Bullish Crossover () signals, capturing securities that have transitioned from neutral or bearish states into confirmed upward momentum. In this editorial, we look at the NYSE Select Bullish Crossover Portfolio's current holdings and discover that some themes are revealed.

Stock Trends Weekly Reporter highlights two powerful themes this week: Leadership Momentum — stocks in entrenched Bullish states with sustained outperformance — and Volume-Validated Bullish — stocks in Bullish categories attracting unusual accumulation. Together, these lists showcase the names that momentum metrics are backing, and where retail traders can align with strength.

Amidst a market still digesting the Federal Reserve’s first rate cut in nine months, one theme stands out in the latest Stock Trends dataset: the remarkable resilience of retail leaders. While thousands of common stocks across NYSE, Nasdaq, and TSX are posting Strong Bullish signals, three consumer-facing companies — TJX Companies, O’Reilly Automotive, and Dollarama — hold the longest uninterrupted Bullish runs on their exchanges. These records are more than just streaks; they are evidence of durable business models that thrive through economic cycles, proving that retail remains a pillar of strength even in a shifting macro environment.
