What the session actually says
Index and breadth pointed the same way, so the headline move is a reasonable summary of the session rather than a heavyweight effect. Sector averages are still weighted towards their largest constituents — read a sector move as a signal about its giants. Our guide to PSX market cycles covers what drives these moves over a longer horizon.
