Last year they would complain that the biggest growth stocks were not participating in the stock market rally.

This year they're complaining that the biggest growth stocks are participating too much in the stock market rally.

It's quite obvious that people just like to complain.

We've already addressed the fact that this is perfectly normal, healthy sector rotation, and NOT a weakening breadth issue.

See here.

Periods of concentrated leadership do not necessarily mean widespread distribution.

Besides, it hasn't just been 5 stocks that have been going up. Or 7 stocks, or even 10.

A lot of stocks, in both the U.S. and around the world, have already been going up for some time.

The S&P 500 is nearing the 4,300 level -- June is starting out very strong.

When investing in the stock market, we always want to approach it as "a market of stocks."

Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks showing leadership and trending higher.

We may have to look harder to identify them depending on current market conditions. But there are always stocks that are going up.

The same can be said for weak stocks. Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks that are going down, too. 

We already have multiple scans focusing on stocks making all-time highs, such as The Hall of Famers, The Minor Leaguers, and The 2 to 100 Club.

We filter these universes for stocks that are exhibiting the best momentum and relative strength characteristics. 

Clearly, we spend a lot of time identifying and writing about leading stocks every week, via multiple reports.

Now, we're also highlighting lagging stocks on a recurring basis.
