Monday sets the tone. Banks, telecoms, consumer goods, and industrials all react to news from the weekend. Observing which sectors are gaining momentum helps you decide where to focus.
For a beginner, imagine watching a football match and noticing which players are performing well early—you can make better moves as the game progresses.

I agree with you

Weekend policy updates, geopolitical developments, or earnings releases disproportionately affect Monday flows. Observing how different sectors absorb news can reveal risk appetite, sector rotation, and arbitrage opportunities.

Momentum in a sector often precedes individual stock moves. For example, if banks collectively show strength Monday morning, odds are high that top-performing names in that space will absorb inflows first.

Conversely, a weak start in consumer goods may signal profit-taking or rotation, offering opportunities for tactical entries later in the week.

Watching which sectors absorb or reject that liquidity gives early signals on risk appetite, rotation, and smart money positioning before the crowd catches on.

Very true. Sector momentum is usually the early signal, while individual stock rallies are the late confirmation. Smart investors watch sector strength first, then position in the strongest names before inflows fully arrive. If you wait for the stock to move before acting, you’re already late—the sector would have told you first.
 
Spot on! Monday is like the first 15 minutes of a football match you can already tell which team is controlling the game. In the market, that early sector strength often sets the tone for the entire week.
