The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

barchart.com - Nasdaq composite

20260618 26517.93 67 40

I see the above counts in the link provided, but have some questions.

At the bottom of that link it shows "Showing 1-100 of 1002" after listing 100 stocks. So it appears these new highs/lows are from a pool of 1002 Nasdaq stocks on 6/18.

Robbie's last entry in his NHNL data on 11/28/25 shows 2,199 total stocks.

Another Barcharts source for new highs/lows shows a total of 3,072 "components" for 6/18, with 114 new highs and 127 new lows. Scroll down to the NASDAQ section of barchart.com: Stock Market Momentum & Daily Stock Activity

I know Robbie excluded certain "non-stock" things, so the range of 2,000 being less than the 3,000 range makes sense. But I'm confused by the 1,002 total above. Does that exclude more stocks than Robbie did?

Thanks.

By the way, for this "3,000" range NHNL measure, there is a way to see the last 5 days for NHs and NLs. This makes it less important to capture these every day. (I don't see a way to see a history of total "components".)
