Here is a short update and chart from my research.
Ending the week 7/29, sentiment based on the word frequency of "bull market" and "bear market" in online media approached the -5 level, but at the end of last week 8/5 did not cross above it and ticked down slightly. Key to watch this week is the media reaction to the CPI release on Wednesday and jobless claims on Thursday. A strong bullish reaction by the media could push the indicator above -5, while a negative reaction would keep it in the extreme bearish zone.
