Data is awesome. A rare oversold signal says to buy materials stocks now, states Lucas Downey of Mapsignals.com.

Just last week we saw extreme selling in Materials stocks. Going back to 2013, this level of red has only happened 33 times. But get this, the forward returns for the Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLB) have strong performance post these rare events.
