TimingResearch Crowd Forecast Prediction: 57% Chance Higher
This prediction is an attempt by the editor of this newsletter to use the full 5+ 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 from the survey was 65.9% Lower, and the Crowd Forecast Indicator prediction was 61% Chance Lower; the S&P500 closed 2.33% Higher for the week. This week’s majority sentiment from the survey is 67.6% Higher with a greater average confidence from those who responded Lower. Similar conditions have occurred 28 times in the previous 281 weeks, with the majority sentiment being correct 57% of the time and with an average S&P500 move of 0.02% Lower for the week (one of those circumstances where there have been more moves higher but the overall average move is lower). Based on that history, the TimingResearch Crowd Forecast Indicator is forecasting a 57% Chance that the S&P500 is going to move Higher this coming week.
