5TH ANNIVERSARY WRAPUP:

Positioned below the current weekly Sentiment numbers are the frequency of occurrence of the major ones in both tops and bottoms over the past decade.
To show how much of a mixed bag they are this week, the Inv.Intell. Bull/Bear ratio is signalling danger with only 28% Bears, while the AAII ratio is the opposite, signalling 28% Bulls!
Bullish % remains on a Sell signal, still in the high overbought range of 57; ETFs and Mutual Funds had slight Outflows, and the VIX is exhibiting a recent complacent low of 25.
Meanwhile, the most reliable indicator at market bottoms (100%)- the CBOE Equity put/call ratio, is still at a high 71, a Bullish area!
Here are the numbers:
