Insufficient bar history to compute breadth for this industry.
As of May 21, 2026, the communication industry is ranked #10 of 49by 3-month relative strength versus the S&P 500. It is currently outperforming the market, with an excess return of +5.77% over the past 63 trading days.
The 1-month rank is #27, the 6-month rank is #14, and the 1-year rank is #0. Compare these to spot a rotation: a falling 6M rank with a rising 1M rank tells you the industry is turning — money is starting to come back.

How is the RS number computed?
We take the constituent log-returns over the lookback window, subtract SPY's log-return over the same window, and aggregate on a market-cap-weighted basis. The result is “excess return vs the market.”
Communication is one of 49 industries in the Fama-French taxonomy. SIC code-based classification published monthly by Ken French at Dartmouth. The FF49 groupings are intentionally coarser than GICS or SIC alone — useful for market-rotation reads, less useful for fine-grained screening.
