International names maintain their overall leadership tendencies over domestic equities as we open up March. Europe has been a point of strength for the better part of the last few years, as evidenced by strong positioning for the group within the international DALI rankings. Dividend payers have put together a strong opening quarter on the global stage, seeing international representative HDEF advance nearly 8.5% through 3/2/26. With recent action, the fund has reversed out of heavily overbought territory on its default chart, now trading just above the top of the trading band at $33.50. The fund has a strong 4.53 fund score- and while still overbought the technical picture remains quite strong on the pullback. Underneath the hood, the fund has “heavy” allocation to the United Kingdom & Switzerland as well as the financials and consumer staples sectors. Support is found nearby at $32.75.
