Advisor Sentiment Report

Advisors Sentiment By Investors Intelligence April 5,2011

The Advisors Sentiment Report has been calling major market turning points since 1963, and has always been closely followed by the financial media.  This week, CNBC featured the report – you can read about it here.

When the survey was developed by founder, AW Cohen, he originally expected that the best time to be long in the market was when most advisors were bullish,  This proved to be far from the case – a majority of advisors and commentators were almost always wrong at market turning points.  Quite simply, professional advisors are just as susceptible to market emotions as individual investors – they become far too greedy at the top of trends and far too fearful near the bottom.
