The individual investor is pessimistic. Here is what that means for the market

The percentage of investors feeling bearish about the stock market is reaching levels last seen during the Great Recession, according to a weekly survey from the American Association of Individual Investors.

" To be sure, market observers say investors should remember that this is only one piece of data. Willie Delwiche, an investment strategist at All Star Charts, said this moment is particularly unique because he has not seen correlation between sentiment and action — a connection he said has dissipated since the pandemic began. "People are saying one thing and doing something else because of the circumstances in this environment," Delwiche said.
