AAII Sentiment remains Bullish -- 0% cash recommended for traders

This indicator recommends 
from 0% to 100% cash 
in a stock trading portfolio,
based on a survey 
of individual investors.

This indicator 
has recommended 
8% cash, or less, 
for active traders, 
since March 18, 2020.

This is a contrary opinion
indicator --  so would be 
bullish when AAII individual
investors are bearish,
and vice versa.


LAST WEEK 
= MODERATELY BULLISH
41.6 % of AAII Investors
were bullish on a survey
(was 32.9% 
= BULLISH 
one week earlier)


The FOUR WEEK 
moving average
= BULLISH
34.9% of AAII Investors 
were bullish on a survey
(was 34.6% 
= BULLISH 
last week)


Recommended Portfolio
Cash for active traders:
0% (no cash)
(was 0% cash 
last week)


My own
LONG-TERM
Stock Portfolio:
100% cash
(was 100% cash last week)
( % cash based on all 
seven Economic Logic 
stock timing indicators)


For the WEEK 
ending 8/12/20:
30.0% were Bullish  
   (was 23.3% in prior week)

27.8% were Neutral  
    (was 29.7%)

42.1% were Bearish  
    (was 42.6%)


AAII  Indicator Analysis:
    ( over 80% is Bearish )
( 71% to 80% is Moderately Bearish )
( 50% to 70% is Neutral )
( 40% to 49% is Moderately Bullish ) 
  ( under 40% is Bullish )


I prefer the four-week
moving average, 
because it has much less 
volatility than weekly data.

Active traders may prefer 
the weekly data.
