Some extreme bullish sentiment points in recent history and result. This is based on a chart Ruykeyser used to show intermittently on WSW. Data points are certainly not exhaustive and may not be precise

DATE B/(Bulls+bears) result

1/5/73 80.3% Dow down 45% over 23 mos

12/31/76 90.0% Dow down 26% in 14 mos

8/21/87 76.0% Dow down 36% in 8 weeks

In the bubble that ended in 2000 I don't think we ever breached 70% significantly.
I'll pass on interpreting
the importance of the
current extreme number
other than saying it makes me
extremely uncomfortable<g>
