Obviously the trillions and Fed liquidity is mostly why the
market has come back so fast, however also too many people have
been bearish - climbing that wall of worry - this sentiment
indicator still isn't showing bullish sentiment
indeed, however how does that reconcile with the put/call ratio
being so low? we've got retail investors bearish, and the
pro's (I assume buy more options) bullish?
That's what got me, too! Just witnessing the greatest
short-squeeze in US history. Glad my mutual funds stayed invested
but my trading activity has missed 180 S&P points waiting for
wave 5 to correct. No shade to Matt or Steve intended as they've
repeated every day to "stop guessing and to trade what's in front
of me". I don't do ES, especially overnight action, where ALL the
corrective action has taken place just to gap up again every dang
morning in the cash market. I was always told gaps get filled so at
this point I'll be waiting another decade for that 2450-2500 gap to
get filled. Really sucks! Even Buffett and Gundlach got this wrong
so as Forrest would say., "It happens!" Have a peaceful
weekend!
