Websites for Sector Analysis

[raymarquise]

I am trying to find free sites that do regular reporting or analysis of the TSX  sectors - trying to find the best performing sector at any time.
Thanks.

Hello,

As a starting point, here is a link that gives the list of the TSX sectors with their performances and their constituent stocks:

You also have a very interesting one on stockcharts.com.
They have many (free) "carpets", one of them for the TSX 300, divided by sectors, colour and size showing the best and worst sectors, and in each, the best and worst performers!

I love this one!

Thanks, those sites will be very helpful. Are there any other that show the sector performance relative to each other on a monthly or quarterly time frame??

There is another good one, also on GlobeinvestorGold, but I do not know if it accessible to everybody: I think so, if you have registered, even if you do not pay for more services.
Go in the section : "Filters":
http://golddb.globeinvestor.com/invest/investSQL/fc.stock_basic_filter
There you have four choices, you can select "Heat maps",
http://gold.globeinvestor.com/servlet/HTMLTemplate?tf=Financial%2FFundProfile%2Fheatmap%2Fgold_heatmaps.html&cf=globeinvestorgold/main/gigold.cfg&pi_action=blank&pi_session_id=0119500254564134207990757346253111644841935595175824435161952331/fanny/FC  where you again have many choices.

See if you have access and then you'll find by yourself how it works.

You can also analyze in the same way one or more real or fictive portfolios that you have built in a previous time, or analyze the stocks that you have added as a "Stocklist".

On the whole, gold.globeinvestor.com is one of the best ones, although in their comments and analyses, they seem sometimes a little bit biased against certain stocks, I noticed mainly against Bombardier...

This is one of the rare sites where I pay, and it gives me access to the whole Globe and Mail e.edition and all there achives. I am not only a trading maniac, I am also a news maniac 

But doesn't your own trading site offer something similar? Mine does.
I guess these are the differences between them all, and you know it only once you have opened you account
