    A carry on sentiment theme from my last post above..

    Another Seeking Alpha article written this time by Erin Parnell titled The Greatest Fool is Here. He mentions the Market Sentiment of the Equity Markets (inferring the S&P500) and uses the Investor Behaviour Project at Yale University under the direction of Professor Robert Shiller the four different stock market confidence indices for the United States charts as references. His Article contains some handy investor tool (advanced charts) links as well

    Summary
    Investors think stocks are expensive.

    Yet investors are as optimistic about future returns as they have ever been.
    This is a combination that does not end well at all.
    The Greatest Fool is here.
    A notable divergence is taking place in the U.S. stock market. A growing percentage of investors believe that stock valuations are too high. Yet a record number of investors also think that stock prices will be higher one year from now. Such is a toxic brew of sentiment that potentially does not end well.
