Extreme Fear: The Contrarian's Best FriendS&P 500SP:SPXHenriqueCentieiroThe Fear & Greed Index has plummeted to 10 - extreme fear territory. Over the last 15 years, readings this low have marked or closely preceded major market bottoms. When everyone is terrified, that's typically when the best opportunities emerge. Retail investors are selling. Headlines are apocalyptic. And yet, historically, this is exactly when you want to be buying, not selling. I'm bullish and I think the SPX SPY will increase by at least 10% from now until the end of the year.
