Cynthia, thanks for compiling these data for us and providing the links to the files. I suspect there is some interesting data in the performance differences between 1Q and 2Q based on the comparative euphoric sentiment in 1Q and the uncertainty of “Liberation Day” tariffs in early 2Q. I know I had highest sentiments during the 1Q tops and the lowest sentiments at the 2Q lows after 04/04. AAII sentiment survey trends would be a good study to see how well it forecasted and tracked this “Tale of Two Quarters.”
