State of Consumer at Pods

Starting at a top MM soon covering Consumer. Have 2 friends at other MMs who cover Consumer Staples. It sounds like there has been a lot of unwind in the sector recently, can anyone provide color here? Thanks in advance!

Just track any momentum basket. Been pretty vicious in magnitude and speed of the unwind.

Probably mostly done magnitude wise, but need a few more weeks of chop to fully filter through (at least based on historical analogues)
