Market Interpretation
The market breadth data from May 6 to May 16, 2025, reflects a clear shift toward bullish momentum.
After brief weakness around May 6 and May 14, the majority of stocks have resumed upward movement with strong participation across multiple timeframes. The increasing number of stocks above key moving averages, rising new highs, and solid weekly breadth figures all confirm broad internal market strength.
The rally is not just driven by a few large caps—it is broad-based and gaining momentum, this is a constructive environment for short- to mid-term traders and trend followers.
