Dorsey, Wright Client Sentiment Survey - 10/8/10

October 8, 2010

Here we have the next round of the Dorsey, Wright Sentiment Survey, the first third-party sentiment poll.

As you know, when individuals self-report, they are always taller and more beautiful than when outside observers report their perceptions! Instead of asking individual investors to self-report whether they are bullish or bearish, we’d like financial advisors to weigh in and report on the actual behavior of clients. It’s two simple questions and will take no more than 20 seconds of your time. We’ll construct indicators from the data and report the results regularly on our blog–but we need your help to get a large statistical sample!

Contribute to the greater good! It’s painless, we promise.
