Just checked the Greed Index and it's showing extreme fear right now - the market's down about 10% and sentiment has completely flipped. You can feel the panic in the data when these readings swing this hard.

It's wild how fast things change. One minute everyone's bullish, next thing you know the index is flashing those extreme fear signals and people are getting nervous. This kind of extreme fear usually means capitulation, which is either a buying opportunity or a sign we're heading lower - honestly depends on what else is happening in the macro environment.

Days like this remind me why it's important to not just chase the sentiment. When extreme fear hits, that's when you need to think clearly about your positions instead of panic selling with everyone else.
