Bob/Caroline-
Uhh...excuse me but I think I missed something here: are
you two talking about
the STOCK MARKET, COMMODITIES, GOLD? Caroline, if you are
talking about gold
I am told that Market Vane is good for contrary opinion
and sentiment; for
commodities. I don't follow it, or know very much about
it, but you can google
marketvane.com or something similiar.
I think the problem is how one defines the universe of
opinion/sentiment and how it is
quantified: by what they say, or what they do with their
money; or maybe both?
This is probably a project in itself and I don't know much
about the history
of such data, and the differences and nuances.
