With tremendous volatility in global markets, investors and professionals are wondering where the markets are headed from here. This piece will provide a huge clue for investors. Today King World News wanted share with its readers key portions from the latest Investors Intelligence report.
This is an extremely important piece because it shows increasing pessimism for the third week in a row, even as the market continues to strengthen. Here is the [...] From Dr. Ed’s Blog: The Bull Bear Ratio, compiled by Investors Intelligence, declined to 1.86 this week, down from a recent high of 2.45 during the week of April 3. It’s the lowest since mid-March. The change in sentiment has been even more noticeable in the… Read full article… From Pragmatic Capitalism: …I’ll do the worrying for everyone. How does that sound? The latest Investors Intelligence poll was just released and showed the bull camp expanding its ranks yet again to 54.8% in the latest week from 52.1%. No matter how good you think the news has been, or how far central banks willing to go, it all looks to be discounted at this point. The reason I say that is because [...] kingworldnews.com With investors as welll as professionals wondering when the global markets will peak, today King World News interviewed 32 year veteran, John Gray, from Investors Intelligence. When asked what he is seeing in terms of sentiment readings and where he believes markets are headed, Gray responded, “We had further gains last week with solid market action. This took the Nasdaq to new highs and this week we had the Dow Jones [...] by Lance Roberts of StreetTalk Advisors Complacency Risk Is High As I was writing this past weekend’s newsletter “A Technical Review Of The Markets” it really dawned on me just how complacent investors have become on the economy, the markets and risk in general. The mainstream media, and most of analysts, are looking at recent improvements in the economic data as a sign that the economy has begun to make a turn for the better. [...] From David Rosenberg: MORE SIGNS OF CAPITULATION? The USA Today consensus showed that strategists have cut their year-end S&P 500 targets by 8%. by Vics CNBC has the latest figures from the Investors Intelligence (II) Survey…big drop in bears down to 15.7% while the bulls increased to 57% yielding a bull/bear ratio of 3.63. The link below shows a 4 year chart of the II Survey. The first chart is the bull/bear ratio which has not yet been updated for this week. However, it’s clear that the [...] by Charles Hugh Smith from Of Two Minds Guest Post: I’ve Got a Funny Feeling About the Stock Market The dollar has reached a point of double-bind for the Fed: push it down further or allow it to rise, it won’t matter: either way, stocks will fall off a cliff. I’ve got a funny feeling that all the ramp-and-camp, extend-and-pretend POMO games propping up stocks are about [...] by Vics The markets appear to be getting tired. The NASDAQ, the S&P 500 and the Dow Industrials are currently sitting at, or very near, their highs for year. However, many of the well-known oscillators; MACD, Slow Stochastic, RSI and the Ultimate Oscillator, are showing fairly strong NEGATIVE DIVERGENCES in each of the major indexes warning of some downward movement ahead. The darling of [...] by Vics The Large Specs increased their long exposure considerably and are now net long once again. The Commercials decreased their long exposure slightly, but this move more or less confirms the Buy signal since the Commercials move inversely to the market. The Small Investors (Dumb moneyor so the theory goes) also confirmed the Buy Signal generated by the Large Specs (Smart money) by decreasing their long exposure considerably. [...] The large Specs INCREASED their long exposure slightly. However, they remain NET SHORT. Back on January 15 of this year the large specs gave a big sell signal but they were still net long at that point. The following week (January 22) was the last week they were net long. The long/short ratio for the Large Specs hit a low point of -30% on April 23 which was the recent [...] http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Why-an-Extended-Bear-Market-etfguide-702986177.html?x=0 History vs. Kool-Aid The past few months have been an epic fight between sentiment readings and momentum. Thus far, momentum has carried prices higher and defied the validity of sentiment readings. For the market to move higher, it would have to invalidate many decades worth of generally accurate sell signals. Here are a few of the extremes recorded over the past few months that unequivocally add weight to the sell side of [...] |
