fwiw... dont have a clue on how well these help folks Market Sentiment & Direction Indicator Comparative Performance In the table and charts below, the performance of seven stock market sentiment indicators is evaluated for each of three major classifications of ETFs (broadly diversified, US sectors and world regions). These indicators are meant to determine whether it is a bull market (risk-on) or a bear market (risk-off). During a bull market the Strategy selects the trend leader to own at the end of each month from among the Strategy's candidate ETFs. During a bear market, the Strategy will either move to the safety of CASH or alternatively own a long-term treasury ETF, depending on its configuration. Performance for both of these Bear Market Strategy configurations is detailed below. Please review the Bear Market Strategies page for a discussion on how hindsight selection bias can be avoided during bear markets using a well-designed Strategy that selects from a diverse set of asset classes that often (but not always) do well during a market crash.
