September 20 (King World News) – Here is a portion of today’s note from Jason Goepfert at SentimenTrader:  While stock indexes power higher, setting fresh records on Thursday, it’s not quite all roses under the surface. So far, that hasn’t mattered one whit…

Even as the S&P 500 soars to a record high, the relative returns in homebuilders are sinking to their worst levels in a year (see chart below).

Souring prospects for homebuilders was a tip-off ahead of the 2007 crisis, so let’s look for any other similar setups. Figure 4 … shows every time the S&P 500 was at a 52-week high, and the ratio of PulteGroup to the S&P sunk to a 52-week low within the past few days.

It was not a good warning, at least in the shorter-term. A couple of months later, the S&P was higher every time but twice. More worrisome is that the divergences preceded rough markets in 1987, 2000, 2008, 2011, and 2015.
