In the case of CG, the swing trader employed a sector rotation strategy by analyzing both technical and fundamental factors.

In the case of CG, the swing trader likely assessed various fundamental indicators such as earnings growth, revenue projections, and industry trends. Positive factors such as strong financial performance, favorable market conditions, or upcoming product launches might have contributed to the decision to allocate capital to CG.
