I had a bad day, today. Not in the market, but on the road. Driving back from Baltimore on the interstate, I ran over a piece of wood with nails in it that punctured both tires on the passenger side. I waited over 2 hours for AAA to come and tow me. So I am tired and deflated, puns intended. I need to retire my car tomorrow. So, I will just update the GMI tonight.
The GMI rose to +2. The Daily QQQQ index is on a firm up trend
now. The Daily SPY Index is positive again. There were 77 52-week highs today in my universe of almost 4,000 stocks, and 55 new lows. Sixty-nine percent of the NASDAQ 100 stocks rose today, 78% of the S+P 500 stocks and 77% of the Dow 30. The only negative I saw was that the short term interest rate index closed above its 50 day average again, after 2 days below.
Keep an eye on NDAQ if it closes above 15.05. GOOG hit a new high today, as did PRGS. NSI and IVGN may pop again. FORD is on the move again. (I own some of these stocks.)
