XLC drops 2.3% and slips back under its 50-week average as money flow stays negative

October 02, 2026

Our view last week

XLC, the US communication services ETF, gains 1.9% after last week's dip and lines up 4 higher lows on the daily chart, from the 110 area to the 112 area. The weekly MACD histogram is rising again, but the price action is unconvincing: sellers stay ahead in the weekly bar and money flow is still negative. In this XLC technical analysis the key is the 115 area, which has already turned the price back three times, with the buy signal 2.1% in profit.

This week's summary

XLC, the US communication services ETF, drops 2.3% and slips back below its 50-week average, which it had closed above only last week. In this XLC technical analysis the weight falls on money flow, negative for 3 weeks, and on a new 30-day low set during the week with no confirming close.
