Navigating Uncertainty: Market Breadth and Country ETF Trends Amid Trade Turbulence

Global equity markets face growing uncertainty as aggressive U.S. tariffs and retaliatory actions disrupt supply chains and complicate investment decisions. Recent surprises, like the sharp pullback in copper prices, highlight how unpredictable trade policies are impacting markets beyond fundamentals. Traditional tools can struggle in this environment, making Bullish Percent Indexes useful for measuring broad market strength through buy signals across stocks. Alongside this, examining country ETF performances reveals where momentum persists and where risks might be rising.

Sandstorm Gold shares have exhibited positive moves in relative strength as the shares started the year in the Red Unfavored Zone of the SIA S&P/TSX Composite Index report but migrated their way up the Yellow Neutral Zone in the report in early February signalling it was a name to keep an eye on. Very shortly thereafter the SIA Platform subsequently issued a Green Favored Zone signal back on February 12, 2025, at a price of $9.40. Since then, the shares have continued to strengthen further as the closing price is now at $12.99 which represents a 38% increase since its entry in the Favored Zone approximately six months ago.

Technically, the stock is showing signs of strength for the first time in years, with improving relative performance and new positioning in key index rankings. While legal uncertainties persist, might the market be starting to price in the possibility of resolution?
