The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

With a current value of 43 it close to the middle of it's 0-100 range and therefore in the "Neutral" area.... But how it comes to 43 is highly unusual....
2 of it's 7 components are signaling "Extreme Fear" (HighLows & McClellan Volume)....


That discrepancy gets ever more interesting. While both components are still signaling "Extreme Fear" with 58 the overall index value is now even in the "Greed" zone.

Again: Highly unusual over the years, not sustainable. Something has to give. The greed, with the optimistic natures finally realising that even the big 7 won't go up forever and taking their profits? Or the fear, with the last skeptics (me :) finally turning around and buying?

We are living in interesting times.
