It is right at that level yet again," Worth said, pointing to the uptick in the bottom panel's trend line. "So, as this goes, so goes the market. I think you've got a crowding that's not so good. Just to put it in real context, think of those six names relative to the S&P. It's all so dependent on these big names.
