Using Market Health Dashboard
Before picking individual stocks, smart investors check the broader market. The Market Health dashboard gives you a quick read on market conditions.
Finding Market Health
Navigate to Market Health from the main menu. You'll see three key sections.
Health Score
The overall market health score (0-100) summarizes current conditions:
| Score Range | What It Means |
|---|---|
| 70-100 | Healthy market conditions |
| 40-69 | Mixed signals, proceed carefully |
| 0-39 | Elevated risk, be cautious |
The score considers valuation levels, market breadth, and risk indicators.
Sector Valuations
See which sectors are cheap or expensive relative to their history:
- Green — Sector is undervalued (potential opportunity)
- Yellow — Fairly valued
- Red — Overvalued (proceed with caution)
Shopping Sales
Think of sector valuations like department store sales. Some departments are marked down (undervalued sectors), while others are at full price or premium (overvalued sectors).
You might find better deals in the discounted sections.
Historical Context
Compare current market conditions to historical averages:
- How does today's P/E compare to 10-year average?
- Are we in bubble territory or bargain territory?
- What happened in similar past conditions?
