Recent market indicators suggest that investor sentiment is deteriorating, with the CNN Fear & Greed Index nearing 'Extreme Fear' territory. Analysts noted that the market is quickly closing in on this state, contrasting sharply with the 'Extreme Greed' observed at the same time last year. Some market observers believe that while fear may be bottoming out, predicting the market's next move remains challenging. The upcoming transition of power, with Donald Trump set to take office in approximately ten days, has led to mixed sentiments about potential market impacts.
