Growth stocks have out-performed value stocks for nearly 15 years, with a major surge from 2017 to 2020.
But the past two years have seen this turn into more of a tug-o-war as value stocks attempt to regain long lost favor.
Is a reversal of fortune underway?

Yikes! And it is now testing support at (2). If this support fails to hold, it will suggest that a change of leadership is underway. Time for value stocks to shine? Stay tuned!
