Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio was higher at 17.14, a 7month high. I note that SPX has closed last two days and the ratio has been higher on both days. This is not usually a bullish indication in the ST. The ratio fell to 3.35 on 03/17, the lowest since early 2016. The ratio reached 28.62 on 12/27, the highest reading in my database.
