The latest reading on investor sentiment from the AAII survey showed bullish sentiment dropped back below 50% this week. 44.5% of respondents reported as bullish in the<span class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\"> past week, which is right in line with the average reading of the past two months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\">\n<figure class=\"regular-img-figure paywall-full-content invisible\" contenteditable=\"false\"><picture> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ifintechworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/saupload_072723-AAII-1.png\" alt=\"AAII bullish sentiment\" contenteditable=\"false\" loading=\"lazy\"> <\/picture><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\">The 6.5-point decline in bulls was only partially picked up by bearish sentiment, which rose from 21.5% (the lowest level in over two years) to 24.1%. Albeit higher sequentially, that remains a muted reading.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\">\n<figure class=\"regular-img-figure paywall-full-content invisible\" contenteditable=\"false\"><picture> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ifintechworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/saupload_072723-AAII-2.png\" alt=\"AAII bearish sentiment\" contenteditable=\"false\" loading=\"lazy\"> <\/picture><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\">Neutral sentiment took home a larger share of the drop to bulls, with the reading rising to 31% from 27.1%.

In last Thursday\u2019s Closer, we discussed how alongside the <\/span><em class=\"paywall-full-content no-summary-bullets invisible\">AAII<\/em><span class=\"paywall-full-content no-summary-bullets invisible\"> survey, multiple other sentiment readings have tipped in favor of bulls recently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">One such indicator that has continued to become more bullish is the NAAIM Exposure index which tracks the average equity exposure of active investment managers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Readings range from -200 to +200. -200\/+200 would imply on average money managers are leveraged short\/long, readings of -100\/+100 would be fully short\/long, and a reading of zero would be market neutral.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">This week, the index tipped above 100 for the first time since late November 2021. In other words, active money managers are now fully long for the first time in over a year and a half. That streak of readings below 100 also ends as the fourth longest in the survey\u2019s history at 86 weeks in a row.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">\n<figure class=\"regular-img-figure paywall-full-content invisible\" contenteditable=\"false\"><picture> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ifintechworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/saupload_072723-AAII-5b.png\" alt=\"NAAIM exposure\" contenteditable=\"false\" loading=\"lazy\"> <\/picture><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\"><em>Original Post<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\"><strong>Editor&#8217;s Note:<\/strong> The summary bullets for this article were chosen by Seeking Alpha editors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/seekingalpha.com\/article\/4620841-sentiment-staying-bullish?source=feed_all_articles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The S&amp;P 500 has continued its rally, but sentiment has not exactly reflected that.
