linuspop: fear and greed index

"I bet if you simply bought an S&P ETF when the index entered "Extreme Fear" and sold every time it entered "Extreme Greed," you would probably do VERY well over time (and without much thinkin' required)."

Not if U bought an ETF that is 2X or 3X the index. They tend to have reverse splits. U can lose your shirt if U hold them too long!
