The Bulls Have Left The Building
We're at extreme levels of investors betting on lower stock prices vs those betting on higher ones.
For me, sentiment is NOT just one chart or one indicator.
It's a weight-of-the-evidence thing.
So let's keep going.
The Investors Intelligence Advisory Services show the fewest bulls since 2016.
That means we have fewer bulls among advisors today than during COVID. Talk about extreme:
Active managers are scared to death as well.
The National Association of Active Investment Managers (NAAIM) now shows that their exposure is down to 12.6% - which is below this summer's lows and down to the lowest levels since March 2020:
And when it comes to Individual Investors, we see bears above 60% in back-to-back weeks for the first time IN HISTORY!
Here's that chart:
Who's left to sell?
That's what I'm wondering.
Granted, for individual investors their cash allocation isn't that high. It's been much higher at previous bottoms.
And we can also include some additional data that does not support washout levels of sentiment.
That's why this is a weight-of-the-evidence approach, and we don't lean too much on any one indicator or any one chart.
At the end of the day, price is what pays.
Nothing else.
So sentiment extremes or not, we still need to see prices do their thing, otherwise none of this means anything.
We will be discussing all of this Monday night during our Live Monthly Charts Strategy Session.

Does all this sentiment stuff I mentioned above take too long to develop for your taste?
Do you have a shorter-term time horizon?
