Barry Ritholtz: Past Trauma Blinds Investors To Present Danger

FYI: The CFA Institute published its annual sentiment report this week. It surveys individual and institutional investors to determine what they are anxious about.

You might be surprised to learn that about one-in-three is greatly concerned about another 2008-09 type financial crisis:

Investors revealed a growing anxiety about the state of global finance. Almost one-third of investors feel that another financial crisis is likely within the next three years (33 percent of retail investors/29 percent of institutional investors).
