Data
Sentiment Barometer Indicators Overview
Our proprietary SBI’s use behavioural biases to create series that have the same dynamics as survey based indices across 1400 assets. Used to flag up when a market is at risk from over-extended optimism or pessimism. They are a timing tool, to be used alongside other strategies, highlighting when it may be worth considering a contrarian trade or adding portfolio protection.
