re: in the post below .... quote "as I said at the time price is at the mercy of new news and it was hard to see any more new bad news because everything had already been shut down." .....

On the contrary, in my opinion, the worst is yet to come. The UK and particularly the US were late with lockdowns and they are not tight same as italy and china. Indeed half of the US is not even locked down at all. And already 100,000 cases (known cases = probably more like 2 million actual), and doubling every 2 - 5 days... the bad news will not be about lock downs but will be about a surging unbelievable number of deaths and infections since the containment in the us has failed. Because of the lateness and the ineffectivenss the spread could be catastrophic in size and in duration.

    • I've developed an initial version of a market sentiment checker, which utilizes the concept of weighted log returns to gauge the mood of the financial markets. This tool is designed to simplify the complex task of assessing market sentiment by analyzing fluctuations in price data. By applying weights to log returns, it emphasizes the significance of certain data points over others, offering a more nuanced view of market dynamics. This approach allows for a fundamental analysis of market sentiment and provides insights into the current state of the market at any given moment. It serves as a valuable tool for investors and traders looking to make informed decisions based on the underlying sentiment driving market movements. sentiment-sleuth - Github Link
