Daily Market Breadth Analysis – November 6, 2025 (After Market Close)

ChartMill US Breadth Metrics

After Wednesday’s breadth rebound, Thursday’s action (November 6, 2025) saw breadth collapse again. Only 28.5% of stocks advanced while 69.3% declined, essentially mirroring the weakness seen on Monday and Tuesday.

Key Observations:

1. Another Failed Follow-Through

The breadth rally on November 5 now clearly stands as an isolated event. Rather than building on that strength, the market regressed sharply:

  • The percentage of stocks up more than 4% fell to just 3.2% (from 5.2%).

  • Those down more than 4% jumped to 10.4% (from 2.7%).

This signals broad-based selling pressure and minimal upside momentum.

2. Fewer Stocks Holding Above Key Averages

There was significant deterioration in the number of stocks trading above key moving averages:

  • SMA(20)+ fell from 37.8% to 29.4%

  • SMA(50)+ dipped from 41.7% to 37.6%

  • SMA(100)+ and SMA(200)+ also declined modestly, now at 49.7% and 55.8% respectively.

These metrics suggest more stocks are breaking below short- and medium-term support zones — a negative sign for overall trend strength.

3. New Highs Remain Anemic

New highs (NH) remained extremely low at 2.2%, while new lows (NL) ticked up slightly to 3.9%. The lack of leadership from strong stocks remains a major concern.

4. Weakness Across All Timeframes

Breadth was weak not only on the day, but also over weekly and monthly horizons:

  • Weekly advancers: 30% vs 69% decliners

  • Monthly advancers: 35% vs 64.3% decliners

Despite some signs of stabilization in longer-term breadth (e.g. 3-month advance-decline ratios), short-term selling pressure dominates.

5. Participation and Momentum Declining

  • The percentage of stocks up more than 25% in 3 months dropped slightly to 12.7%

  • Those down more than 25% ticked up to 8.1%

This suggests the market is losing high-momentum outperformers while laggards remain persistent.

Conclusion & Breadth Trend Rating

The market breadth picture has turned sharply negative again, and with it, so has the overall tone.

The rapid reversal following a one-day rally underlines the fragile state of market internals. Wednesday’s surge now looks like a classic bear market bounce, fast, strong, but unsustainable.

There is currently no sign of a healthy accumulation phase. Most indicators have reverted to their prior weakening trend, and downside momentum appears to be regaining strength.

Breadth Trend Rating: Negative
