Is the DAX about to collapse ?????

Pls see DAX chart below




Look at chart below for IFO Pan Germany Business Expectations Survey Index




They were all very bullish in 2007 as seen in chart above ( index near 104 )


They were thinking that the DAX would keep on going up


Then came 2008 and the DAX collapsed


They became very bearish by Dec 2008
Index was at 80 or so


They all thought that the DAX would keep on falling


DAX bottomed in early 2009 and rose back up


Now the index is again at 106 - even above the 2007 value


They are very bullish on the DAX - and think that the DAX will keep on going up 


I think they will be in for a very big surprise when the DAX collapses !!!!!


An extreme in bullish sentiment on DAX - tells me to be on the other side of the trade


Extreme caution is advised on DAX this year


in my view there is a very high probability that the DAX may peak and then  crash like it did in 2008


Time will tell and I will post an update again if that were to happen to remind you about this CONTRARIAN way of looking at things
