Sentiment update - getting very close

Sentiment moved from bearish to neutral and rather neutral to bullish as of now and that is exactly what we need in order to have a top that delivers a severe correction. What we are trying to do is to find an appropriate timing. As I called the March 09 as a low for that leg which was easier than calling the end of the upside leg since the upside manipulators have plenty support as their actions are welcome by the governments as by Wallstreet in general. Although we can assume they own most of those entities through many ways anyway but even the ones who are not under direct control will not complain. Eventually as the model by Armstrong shows and astrology confirms we are heading for a similar cluster as in 1931/2 and we unfortunately will see even worse things as big sovereigns like Britain are on the verge of a collapse and the tsunami of debt will wipe out wealth in unseen degree at some point in the new decade. Before we have to deal with a hyped market value trading around 19 times trailing earnings, which will have to adjust very soon.
