The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" 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.

the most bullish sentiment level ever measured
...
One week ago it was at an "Extreme Fear" level, now it's nearly "back to normal".


That's fairly short term.

I was thinking of something like this
verifiedinvesting.com - Warning record number of investors say stocks will rise in
That particular link is showing the highest bullishness since that data series began in 1967. A few similar measures are also hitting records.

(probably paywalled) economist.com - Just how frothy is americas stockmarket
Bloomberg/Conference board data, a record number of investors think US stock prices will rise in the next year. On this metric, previous record (back to 1990) of about 43 hit around 1997 and again in 2017, current level about 56.

Party like it's 1999! Sock it to me! To the mooon, Alice!

(yes, those are coded references to prior secular bull market top stretches)
