Strength and weakness

It is a very deceptive market currently. Stocks are breaking out, but not moving much after breaking out. This is getting reflected in the stocks up 50 % plus in a month and also in stocks up 25% or more in a month. There are few wild runaway moves, if you see the individual stocks in those list.

After 10 months of rally, if you calculate it from July, only 400 stocks are up 100% plus. This figure is around 1000 by 7 th or 8 th month of a typical rally. Every time the figure has crossed 400 in last 8-9 months, there has been correction.

If you look at stocks down 4% or more in a day, you will notice number of stocks are breaking down. This trend has accelerated in last few days and weeks. The market is not making any substantial headway.
