XLU, a hugely popular fund, only invests in utilities companies that are included in the S&P 500. This is both an advantage and a weakness.

Utility Buyers Getting GreedyUtility stocks have been on a tear recently. Just a few days ago, 93% of the stocks in the S&P Utilities Index were trading above their 200-day moving average, and now the breadth is deteriorating rapidly with just 80% of these constituents above their respective MAs.
