XLU

XLU remains in a clear Stage 2 uptrend with higher highs and higher lows supported by rising EMAs. A recent Bullish Pivot Point pattern indicates structural repair, and price has extended above 52-week resistance but without meaningful volume. The Stable strategy favors patience, so execution is deferred for a disciplined pullback into the rising EMA zone rather than chasing the breakout.
