TimingResearch Crowd Forecast Prediction: 69% Chance Higher
This indicator prediction is an attempt by the editor of this newsletter to use the full 2+ year history of data collected from this project to forecast a probability estimate for whether this week’s sentiment is going to be correct and ultimately what the markets will do this coming week.

Details: Last week’s majority sentiment was Lower, and the Crowd Forecast Indicator prediction was 63% Chance Lower; the S&P500 ended up 0.86% for the week. This week’s majority sentiment is Lower (less than 10% difference) and higher average confidence on the bearish side. Similar conditions have been observed 13 times in the previous 155 weeks, with the majority sentiment being correct only 31% of the time with an average S&P500 move for the week of up 0.06% during those weeks, i.e. under similar conditions previously the majority sentiment has most often been wrong. Based on that history, the TimingResearch Crowd Forecast Indicator is forecasting 69% Chance Higher for the week.
