Vanguard Emerging Markets ETF (VWO) — When the economy starts to recover, the most economically sensitive stocks begin to move first. The bounce from the March 9 low predominately occurred in the most out-of-favor, beaten-down sectors of the market. Some of it was short covering. But some of the bounce was the realization that many of these companies were not going out of business.

On a worldwide scale, the most beaten-down, economically sensitive countries have bounced the most. The emerging markets, as measured by the Vanguard Emerging Markets ETF, is up more than 64% since March 9.

The velocity and resilience of the recovery taking place in the most economically sensitive areas of the world may signal that the broader market indices are going higher.
