Coronavirus Stock Market Rally
November became a key month for the stock market, after IBD's The Big Picture noted the market had returned to a new uptrend following a bullish follow-through day on Nov. 4.

Stock Market Rally: What To Do Next
Investors should continue to use the stock market's strength to buy breakouts. Be patient and wait for powerful breakouts instead of chasing extended stocks. If new breakouts work, then add more exposure. But if breakouts start to fail, then you can back away.
In particular, focus on stocks with strong relative strength. Find them by using the relative strength line. The RS line measures a stock's price performance vs. the S&P 500. If the stock is outperforming the broader market, then the RS line angles upward. If a stock is performing worse than the broad market, then the line will point lower.
Stocks to watch include IBD Long-Term Leaders, companies with stable earnings growth and price performance. Fair Isaac (FICO) is the most recent addition to the list, added on Nov. 13. Shares are extended after they cleared resistance around 450.
