The market dropped hard enough this week to push the Leadership Score from 66.7 to 46.7.
Yet every major benchmark ETF remained ACQUIRE throughout the entire decline.
Leadership weakened. Leadership never broke!

TopFlight Performance Tracker leaders:
$INTC 142.3%
$MU 139.4%
$AMD 124.6%
Leadership often looks obvious in hindsight.
The challenge is identifying it while it's developing.
All five major benchmark ETFs remain in ACQUIRE:
$SPY$QQQ$IWM$VOO$SMH
Until that changes, it's difficult to argue that the broader market trend has broken.
Leadership softened slightly on Friday, but the bigger story is what didn't happen.
ACQUIRE fell from 17 to 16.
AVOID remained unchanged at 5.
Bearish participation failed to expand.
$IBIT remains one of the most successful AVOID signals in the system.
AVOID issued: 05/22/26 @ $42.96
Current: ~$36
Capital preserved: approximately 16%
Semiconductors continue to dominate market leadership.

That's where institutional strength continues to show up.
BREAKING: The Nasdaq announces that it expects "a few more hours" before SpaceX, $SPCX, shares can begin trading.
Additional time is needed to ensure the IPO is "orderly" and that "we get the right price," the Nasdaq's President says.
The 10-Day Disaster: Many investors try to "time the market" by jumping out when things look scary. However, missing just the 10 best days of each decade since 1930 would have turned a potential 17,715% return into a measly 28%.
Absolute masterclass in resilience from $RDW. After absorbing a nearly 20% two-day flush without losing its ACQUIRE status, it roared back with a massive 14.93% rally today.
This validates the system's focus on long-term structural anchors over short-term noise.
Action plan for tomorrow: Do nothing dramatic. Let today’s recovery prove it isn’t just a relief bounce.
Eyes on the "Big Four" to gauge the next leg of market health: $NVDA , $GOOG , $AVGO , and $ORCL .
These will tell the true story of the cycle's next move. #TradingStrategy
3 core leaders officially reclaimed ACQUIRE status today after a brief stay in the HOLD penalty box:
• $QCOM: Large-cap quality leading the charge
• $RKLB: Strong space-economy momentum
• $IREN: Explosive Bitcoin infrastructure upside
Momentum is officially shifting back to the bulls. #TopFlightTrades
The 401-Keg: One investor calculated that if they had bought $1,000 of Lehman Brothers in 2008, they'd have $0 today. But if they had bought $1,000 of beer, drank it, and recycled the cans, they'd have $214.00.
They call this the 401-Keg.
Despite the broader recovery, selective institutional de-risking continued in specific pockets, particularly where capital expenditures are high.
$ORCL (Oracle): Plummeted -8.53% to $184.10. Investors expressed concern over increased spending plans despite an earnings beat, resulting in a downgrade from ACQUIRE to WATCH.
$CIFR (Cipher Mining): Slipped 7.66% from its intraday lows but remained a notable laggard earlier in the week.
$NVDA (NVIDIA): While it finished the day in the green ( 2.22%), it remains in the HOLD category after losing leadership status during the Wednesday selloff.

The market rebounded on June 11, 2026, with the Leadership Score rising to 56.7/100, driven by aggressive institutional buying in semiconductors and AI infrastructure.
Key changes include upgrading $IREN, $RKLB, and $QCOM to ACQUIRE, while $ORCL was downgraded to WATCH, and $RTX, $LMT moved to REDUCE. Investors are advised to maintain core holdings in the 17 ACQUIRE-rated assets, particularly $RDW, and freeze new capital for $NVDA, $AVGO, and $GOOG.
