AAII Sentiment does NOT tell us if we are in a bull market or a bear market. It just tells traders if buying stocks today is a good idea for the next week. The weekly indicator can change a lot in one week.  It is a contrary opinion sentiment indicator, so it is bullish when AAII individual investors are bearish, and vice versa, recommending from 0% to 100% cash in a common stock portfolio. Based on market sentiment from an anonymous online poll of members of the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII).  The four-week moving average has much less volatility than weekly data, but active stock traders should prefer the weekly data.
