First positive sentiment signals

Sentiment towards equities continues to cool. At the same time, we are measuring an increase in medium-term basic confidence. This is an unusual change in the data both in terms of seasonal timing and against the background of price trends. Statistically, this points to rising share prices. We are also seeing a noteworthy signal in the Japanese yen.

Investors not concerned about weak market breadth

Market breadth, measured by the proportion of shares in an index above the 50- or 250-day average, is eroding in the US equity market in a remarkable way. Surprisingly, however, this is not yet causing investors any strategic concern. As sentiment values are slightly negative at the same time, the bulls could make another attempt to attack. Things could also get exciting for oil. At the very least, the high neutrality indicates increasing volatility.

Slight cooling of sentiment

Despite the gains in share prices, there is no euphoria in sentiment. On the contrary. Sentiment is cooling. The still positive seasonal window could therefore be used by equities for further price gains. There is an interesting signal for EUR-USD. Basic strategic confidence is rising significantly. The euro should continue to benefit from this.

Leap of joy with bias decline for Instis

The bull market on the stock market triggers a veritable leap of joy. Sentiment towards equities is rising significantly worldwide. The bias development is remarkable: private investors continue to rise, while professionals react completely differently. Their bias is falling drastically. As a result, they are increasingly thinking about taking profits. A spread comparison shows: If the professionals show this behavior, an upper turning point or an interim consolidation is likely.

Further results

• Commodities: Precious metals and crude oil promising
• FX: USD/JPY remains depressed
• sentix sector sentiment
