Sort or filter in your code

The response is already sorted by change_1d descending. If you want a different sort (by 52-week performance or market cap, for example) do it client-side:
JavaScript
// Top sectors by 52-week change
const byYearly = [...data.sectors].sort((a, b) => b.change_52w - a.change_52w);

// Sectors where more stocks declined than advanced (bearish breadth)
const bearish = data.sectors.filter(
  (s) => s.breadth.decliners > s.breadth.advancers
);
