Bias

On a modified Stockbee market monitor, the short-term indicator of 13% up in 34 days stays positive for 8th consecutive week. The long-term metric of stocks 25% plus in a quarter stays positive for 6 consecutive weeks now. The intermediate 25% plus in a month stays positive for 7th consecutive week.

Overall, the market is now bullish for the 6th consecutive week, as the number of stocks up 25% plus in a quarter stays greater than that down 25% plus in a quarter. The ratio between the two is the primary breadth ratio, which is now 19.4. These levels were last seen in August 2021.
