Weekly Sector Rotation to Telegram
Analyzes institutional money flows across all 11 S&P 500 sectors every Monday and delivers a structured sector rotation brief with actionable trade ideas to Telegram.
What It Does
Every Monday at 07:00 UTC, this workflow analyzes where institutional money is flowing across all 11 S&P 500 sectors. It delivers a structured Telegram brief with last week's sector scorecard sorted from leaders to laggards, ETF inflow and outflow signals, a macro context assessment, and one specific sector rotation opportunity for the week — complete with stock names and a thesis invalidation trigger.
Why It Matters
Sector rotation is how professionals beat the index. When technology leads, money is flowing into growth. When energy leads, inflation is embedded. When utilities lead, risk-off is real. Most retail investors position in stocks but ignore which sectors are receiving institutional inflows. This workflow surfaces that signal every Monday — a 60-second read that tells you whether your current positioning is with the money or against it.
How It Works
- Scheduled Trigger — Fires every Monday at 07:00 UTC.
- AI Agent — Searches the internet for last week's performance data across all 11 GICS sectors. It ranks sector ETF inflows and outflows, assesses the current macro cycle phase, and identifies the highest-conviction rotation opportunity for the week.
- Telegram Message — Delivers the structured plain-text brief directly to your Telegram chat.
