If we are close to a recession - why are utilities among the big losers

Because they do grwat regardless of the economic environment. They have sales even if the world comes to an end so to speak.

Dont know;
but the tech sector tend$ to great, most all the times[except polar bear marketsLOL:D:D]
CAN trade tech sector short term; swing, positions invests maybe better.
Utilities+ RE are such underperformers, + small weights in SPY bench mark ;
that can be a clue. I buy RE not thru Wall Street LOL.I've never seen that sector looking good; but i dont believe in retirement so that make$ big a difference in investments, income + health.
Strange how many people die soon after retirement:caution::caution:
 
What recession? The economy is doing great. Inflation just dropped to 3%. We may slow down a little, but I don't see any evidence of a recession.
 
Recently the big loser sectors were healthcare (which lost a lot as covid is no thing anymore) energy (as energy prices fell) and utilities, according to finviz. But has anyone a clue why and would you position for a rebound if you were or are swing trading?

I'm not going to race you on the biggest losers\LOL that's subject to change anyway.
10 years average ,XLE, FXN, FENY, XOP...... have lost some in the past.[ 10 year average way less% gain than SPY benchmark usually ]
3 year cycle, energy + other cycle ETFs they did a bit better:D:D
Sekiyo's chart shows some of these downtrends.
