Bottom line
- Weight of the evidence has been suggesting flat/lower stock prices short- to medium-term again; still suggesting higher prices long-term
- Indicators show high optimism, with Dumb Money Confidence recently above 80% with signs of reckless speculation, historic buying pressure, then even more speculation during what appears to be an unhealthy market environment
- Active Studies show a heavy positive skew over the medium- to long-term; breadth thrusts, recoveries, and trend changes have an almost unblemished record at preceding higher prices over a 6-12 month time frame
- Signs of extremely skewed preference for tech stocks nearing exhaustion, especially relative to industrials and financials (here and here)
- Indicators and studies for other markets are mixed with no strong conclusion, though it's not a great sign for Treasuries that hedgers are net short.
