Don, since the top in January of this year, peaks in the Bull-Bear spread near these levels have signalled short term, local market tops with the DJIA turning back down pretty quickly.  If October was "the" low or maybe even just a very important low, it is possible that the character of this sentiment indicator has changed, but only time will tell.  

Something strange is definitely going on with this survey given the anemic bullish values seen late last year at all-time highs in the DJIA.  This was before the war, with the pandemic clearly waning and a still accommodative Fed.  AAII certainly is surveying a generally pessimistic bunch of folks.

Douglas
