The little-known Tiger 21 is an exclusive investment club whose 130 members -- average portfolio: $50 million -- are not exactly shunning equities but definitely are proceeding with caution.


"I am rooting for a bull market, but I'm very concerned this market is showing signs of being tired," says Tommy Gallagher, a member of the group and its chief executive.

Look at the sentiment the past year then look at the charts.

PS: I'm curious. How did they make that money?
Trading? (Somehow I doubt it.)

more quotes from article... "I don't think that, given what the fundamentals are, we're going into a bear market, but I think it's very likely we're going into a correction," Gallagher says. One investment he's studying right now: The Chicago Board Options Exchange's "Fear Index," which has been edging up this year. This is the CBOE S&P 500 Volatility Index, whose option ticker symbol is VIX. Options are portfolio insurance. If you fear a down market, for example, you can buy options that go up in that circumstance. If a lot of people feel that way, the price of those options will increase.
