TimingResearch Crowd Forecast Prediction: 70% 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 53.6% Higher, and the Crowd Forecast Indicator prediction was 56% Chance Higher; the S&P500 closed 0.24% Lower for the week. This week’s majority sentiment from the survey is 53.6% predicting Higher with a greater average confidence from those who are predicting Higher. Similar conditions have occurred 20 times in the previous 321 weeks, with the majority sentiment (Higher) being correct 70% of the time and with an average S&P500 move of 0.66% Higher for the week. Based on that history, the TimingResearch Crowd Forecast Indicator is forecasting a 70% Chance that the S&P500 is going to move Higher this coming week.
