Frequently asked questions
What is stock market breadth?
Breadth measures how broadly stocks are participating in a move — for example, the percentage of stocks trading above their 200-day moving average. Broad participation (high breadth) is a healthier backdrop than a few large stocks carrying the index.
What does "% above the 200-day moving average" mean?
It's the share of stocks in a group whose price is above their 200-day average — a long-term trend gauge. Right now 52% of US stocks we cover are above their 200-day MA.
