Lagging a little, but still on track.
The level of negativity is VERY HIGH, which is sustaining the rally. Once prices drift higher into August there will likely be a strong level of complacency. That is when we need to worry about upcoming new ideas from the House and Senate and Presidential Campaign speeches.
The latest Individual Investors sentiment reading shows only 34% bulls vs 38% long term average. There are FAR MORE "neutral" investors than ever, which is bullish when prices are rising (and bearish when prices are falling).
The fundamental backdrop between the two time zones is somewhat similar and will likely be discussed much more in the coming weeks as the comparison unfolds.
