FYI: Amid a big uptick in volatility and a sell-off of the likes not seen in a couple of years, you would have thought bullish sentiment would be heading south. That's not the case, however. Last Thursday's AAII (American Association of Individual Investors) number was the first sign that the sell-off wasn't impacting sentiment, and our weekend Bespoke Market Poll only confirmed it. As shown below, bullish sentiment in our poll came in at 61% over the weekend, which was up 7 points week-over-week.
