The S&P 500 is currently on pace for a gain of just under 2% in the month of June which is nothing to sneeze at.  However, after a gain of over 12% in April and more than 4% in May, June performance seems relatively meager.  That being said, the slowdown in the pace of the rally this month is helping to work off overbought conditions for most sectors.  Through Friday’s close, just three sectors (Technology, Communication Services, and Consumer Discretionary) are overbought while the remaining eight sectors finished the week off in neutral territory.  Of those eight sectors, the only one below its 50-day moving average is Utilities, which was also down more than any other sector last week (-2.01%).  Technology continues to top the leaderboard as it’s up the most of any sector YTD, the most above its 50-DMA, and, behind the Health Care sector, was the second-best performing sector last week.
