“Prior to breaking the downtrend line, PGJ formed two higher lows within the base, which is what we typically look for in most consolidation patterns.

PGJ currently trades about 4.4% below its 52-week high. Much of the ETF’s allure to investors has been driven by its noticeable lack of exposure to state-run banks and oil companies coupled with its heavy weights to high-flying Chinese Internet stocks.

While not a pure play tech ETF, that sector represents over 55% of PGJ’s weight and seven Internet stocks are found among the fund’s top-10 holdings, including Ctrip.com (NasdaqGM: CTRP), Baidu (NasdaqGM: BIDU) and Sina (NasdaqGM: SINA).
