I agree. If you scroll down to the bottom of the CNN Fear-Greed Index webpage and look at the historical graph, you can see that the fear-greed indicator indicates a steeper plunge from greed to fear at any time over the past 3 years. It's moved from around 64 as i recall down to 24 right now in just several trading days.

The historical graph will show obviously lower points (i.e., deeper "fear") that the index has hit, but not such a steep plunge.

Apparently the vast majority of funds aren't buying anything now in this heavily Risk OFF sentiment.
