Weekly StatSheet For The ETF Tracker Newsletter – Updated Through 09/17/2026

Ulli ETF StatSheet Contact

ETF Data updated through Thursday, September 17, 2026

How to use this StatSheet:

  1. Out of the 1,800+ ETFs out there, I only pick the ones that trade over $5 million per day (HV ETFs), so you don’t get stuck with a lemon that nobody wants to buy or sell.
  1. Trend Tracking Indexes (TTIs)

These are the main indicators that tell you when to buy or sell Domestic and International ETFs (section 1 and 2). They do that by comparing their position to their long-term M/A (Moving Average). If they cross above, and stay there, it’s a green light to buy. If they fall below, and keep going, it’s a red light to sell. And to make sure you don’t lose your shirt if things go south, I also use a 12% trailing stop loss on all positions in these categories.

  1. All other investment areas don’t have a TTI and should be traded based on the position of each ETF relative to its own trend line (%M/A). That’s why I call them “Selective Buy.” In other words, if an ETF goes above its own trend line, you can buy it. But don’t forget to use a trailing sell stop of 12%, or less if you’re feeling nervous.

If some of these words sound like Greek to you, please check out the Glossary of Terms and new subscriber information in section 9.

  1. DOMESTIC EQUITY ETFs: BUY— effective 5/20/2025

This is our main compass, the Domestic Trend Tracking Index (TTI-green line in the above chart). It has broken above its long-term trend line (red) by +4.34% and remains in “Buy” mode, with our holdings being subject to our trailing sell stops.

The link below shows all High Volume (HV) Domestic Equity ETFs. They are ranked by M-Index, which is my secret sauce for measuring momentum. Prices in all linked tables below are updated through 09/17/2026, unless otherwise noted. Price data not yet available at publication is indicated with 00.00% or -100.00%. Please note that distributions are not included in the current momentum numbers.

If the TTI is above the trend line, you can use the tables in the link below to pick your winners:

This is our global guide, the International Trend Tracking Index (green). It has broken above its long-term trend line (red) by +5.30% and has been in “Buy” mode since 5/7/2025.

The list in the link below shows the High Volume (HV) International ETFs I track for you during a Buy cycle. They are also ranked by M-Index:

  1. ETF MASTER LIST

This is the mother of all lists, showing all ETFs I track and how they stack up against each other. The sorting order is by M-Index too. Momentum figures for all ETFs are not adjusted for dividends.

  1. COUNTRY ETFs: SELECTIVE BUY

This is where you can find HV ETFs for specific countries or regions that I watch every week. Please note that the data in this table does not include adjustments due to distributions. Country funds can be wild beasts, so make sure you use a trailing stop loss (I use 10%) to protect yourself from nasty bites.

  1. SECTOR ETFs: SELECTIVE BUY

This is where you can diversify your portfolio by looking for different opportunities in various sectors of the market. The table of HV Sector ETFs in the following link covers a wide range of possibilities. The sorting order is by M-Index:

http://www.successful-investment.com/SSTables/HVSectorETFs091726.pdf

Here too, I recommend using a 10% trailing stop loss to limit your risk.

  1. BOND & DIVIDEND ETFs: SELECTIVE BUY

If you like getting paid for holding ETFs, here’s a list of bond and dividend paying ETFs. But before you buy them, make sure you check their momentum figures first. Then you can visit your favorite financial web site to see their yield and other details.

Please note that the data in this table does not include adjustments due to distributions.

  1. BEAR MARKET ETFs: SELECTIVE BUY

Below are some of the most popular bear market ETFs and their momentum figures:

http://www.successful-investment.com/SSTables/HVBearETFs091726.pdf

Please note that some of these funds try to beat the index they are tied to by a certain percentage. This can boost your returns, but it can also magnify your losses. So be careful and use a trailing sell stop (I suggest 10%) and be ready for some bumps along the way.

In case you missed it, you can download my latest e-book “How to beat the S&P 500…with the S&P 500,” here. If you are investing your 401k and must use mutual funds, I suggest you mainly stick with the S&P 500 as described in my book. Of course, you can always use the above tables to find sector or country ETFs that suit your taste and use the equivalent mutual funds as offered by your custodian.

I must tell you that I, as well as my advisory clients, own some of the ETFs listed in the above table. Also, they are not meant to be specific investment recommendations for you, they just show which ETFs from my universe are doing well right now.

Stocks Rebound, Silver Shines And Bitcoin Shrugs Off The Fed

  1. Moving the market

Stocks bounced back today as lower bond yields, softer oil prices, and renewed strength in technology gave investors a few good reasons to step back into the market.

Tech did most of the heavy lifting, while the 10-year Treasury yield slipped back below 5%, taking some pressure off equities. Oil also retreated toward $100 as supply concerns eased, another welcome development for a market that’s had plenty to digest lately.

Elsewhere, the dollar gave back some of yesterday’s jump, gold recovered toward $4,400, and the metals complex had a strong showing.

Silver gained 3.35% and copper 2.71%, while Bitcoin headed back toward $77,000, apparently deciding yesterday’s Fed rate hike wasn’t worth losing sleep over.

So, today’s rebound was encouraging, but one good session doesn’t settle the argument.

Was this simply a dead-cat bounce, or are traders starting to see a clearer path now that the Fed has finally shown its hand?

Fed Sticks To The Script, But Markets Still Head South

Fed Sticks To The Script, But Markets Still Head South

[Chart courtesy of MarketWatch.com]

  1. Moving the market

The market spent most of the day fixated on the Fed, and in the end, Chair Powell & Co. stuck to the script with a quarter-point rate hike.

That outcome may not have been exciting, but it removed the risk of a surprise, which is usually a good thing because Wall Street tends to react to surprises the way cats react to vacuum cleaners.

Even so, traders weren’t exactly in a buying mood. Stocks faded after the announcement, bonds sold off, and yields moved higher as the dollar climbed to a one-month high.

On the bright side, oil also headed lower, providing at least a little relief after diesel prices topped $6 a gallon and crude spent time above $100 a barrel.

The Fed’s message was pretty clear: inflation remains the main concern, while worries about rising unemployment appear to be taking a back seat for now.

The real question is whether today’s move was a one-and-done adjustment or the first step in a new tightening cycle.

What will traders focus on next: inflation, growth, or the path of future rate hikes?

The Fed Looms Large As Rising Yields Test Market Resilience

  1. Moving the market

The bears stayed in control today as investors headed into tomorrow’s Fed decision with one eye on interest rates and the other on the exits.

The big story wasn’t stocks, though, it was bonds. The 10-year Treasury yield briefly pushed above 5%, a level we haven’t seen since 2007, reminding everyone that “higher for longer” is more than just a catchy phrase.

AI-related stocks helped cushion some of the damage after yesterday’s weakness, but rising yields and climbing oil prices continue to make life difficult for equities.

Brent crude pushed above $108, adding another layer of inflation concern just as the Fed prepares to make its next move.

Elsewhere, gold held its ground despite a stronger dollar, while Bitcoin gave back yesterday’s gains after the CLARITY Act stumbled by a single vote.

For now, earnings and economic resilience are still providing support, but if yields remain above 5%, history suggests stocks may face a stiffer headwind.

Will tomorrow’s Fed decision calm nerves or give the bears another reason to celebrate?

Bitcoin Shines While Stocks Slide Under The Weight Of Rising Yields

Ulli Market Commentary Contact

[Chart courtesy of MarketWatch.com]

  1. Moving the market

Friday’s relief rally didn’t make it through the weekend. Stocks opened on their back foot and spent most of the day underwater as investors wrestled with three things that mattered: AI uncertainty, surging oil prices, and another bout of bond market nerves.

The AI space took a hit after renewed calls for a slower pace of development raised fresh questions about the timing and appetite for future AI IPOs. At the same time, oil jumped above $103 a barrel after Saudi Arabia shut down a key pipeline, which is never the kind of headline inflation fighters like to read over their morning coffee.

Adding to the unease, bond yields spiked ahead of this week’s Fed meeting, briefly pushing the 10-year above 5% before calming down late in the session. Stocks recovered from their worst levels but still finished in the red, while a stronger dollar took some shine off gold.

One notable exception was bitcoin, which ignored both the stronger dollar and the gloomy mood on Wall Street, rallying on hopes tied to the CLARITY Act. Leave it to crypto to show up wearing a Hawaiian shirt at a black-tie event.

With the Fed decision due Wednesday, uncertainty remains the market’s favorite asset class. The question now is: will the Fed calm investors’ nerves, or give them one more thing to worry about?

ETFs On The Cutline – Updated Through 09/11/2026

Ulli ETFs on the Cutline Contact

Do you want to know which ETFs are hot and which ones are not? Then you need my High-Volume ETF Cutline report. It tells you how close or far each of the 311 ETFs I follow is from its long-term trend line (39-week SMA). These are the ETFs that trade more than $5 million a day, so they are not some obscure funds that nobody cares about.

The report is split into two parts: The winners that are above their trend line (%M/A), and the losers that are below it. The yellow line is the line of shame that separates them. You can see how many ETFs are in each group and how they have changed since the last report (219 vs. 207 current).

Take a peek:

If you are confused by some of the terms we use, don’t panic. I have a helpful Glossary of Terms for you.
