Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: What down market? With the snow in the northeast, the bears apparently went into hibernation this week. According to the weekly survey from the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII), bearish sentiment declined from 30.8% down to 22.39%. One would have thought that with the weakness we have seen in the last few days that bearish sentiment would have increased. While bearish sentiment declined, bullish sentiment rose from 37.1% up to 44.2%, bringing the weekly reading back above the bull market average of 38.8%.
