Is identifying an industry sector which will outperform the market

Although the phrase "will outperform the market" is problematic, there are a couple of easy to use tools available free at Stockcharts to identify regions, sectors or sub-sectors/industries that are trending stronger than "the market" and for the short term (next 3-5 weeks) more likely than not to outperform the market, due to standard momentum & trend.

One is the sectors list, and using the simple SCTR number (Stockcharts Technical Rank) as a sort.

Another is the Relative Rotation Graph, which is a great visualization of change in relative strength among whatever several symbols you choose - takes a bit of training to understand what it's showing but no big deal.
