The GMI stayed the same at 4, but the GMI-R lost one, to 6, because there were fewer new highs than lows (33/71) in my universe of 4,000 stocks on Thursday. Still, Thursday was the 13th day in the current short term up-trend in the QQQQ. Seven stocks from the IBD 100 lists I follow hit a new high: MTL, BDE, CF, MOS, ATN, NEU and NBL. Next Friday is option expiration when I hope many of my stocks will be called away.
