How small caps are foreshadowing the 2022 market

Small-cap stocks have lagged their large-cap counterparts in 2021. Even as the S&P 500 steadily rose to fresh highs this year, the Russell 2000 and S&P 600 finally staged upside breakouts in November out of a multi-month trading range, but they have struggled to hold those breakouts. Small-cap relative performance peaked in March, but they have sagged and been flat to down relative to the S&P 500. In an equally disturbing development for the bulls, the S&P 600 Advance-Decline Line did not confirm the upside breakout by failing to rise to new highs in November.



Here is how I believe small-cap performance is foreshadowing the S&P 500 in 2022, but probably not in the way that you are thinking.
