I have a problem with all of those investor sentiment surveys - there are several I've seen and they are all a little different. Of course, there is so much "news" out there, which one do we believe? Interesting that that article came out, with investment clubs buying and Gates selling - on the same day -

only 29% feel investing in equities to be sound ..... of course that can be construed as VERY bullish. I construe it as bearish. The masses are correct in the middle. The DOW and S&P are really in the middle of their drops IMO. If the average guy is unwilling to pour more $ into the market it simply can not rise. That argument would make more sense in a bull market where investors sudedenly turned bearish. Of those that remain, optimism reigns king right now. How do I know? QQQ OI 122K calls vs 95K puts at strike 24 89K calls vs 26K puts at strike 25 50K calls vs 18K puts at strike 26 Call volume building up on IBM INTC etc etc even after these huge runups. M
