What Is MetLife?
The calm underwriter.
MetLife is one of the world's largest life insurers, founded in 1868 and built on the longest of long-term promises: policies that pay out decades after they are written. Its crowd underwrites its mood the same way. In 273 days on the CFGI MetLife fear and greed index it rarely closed in Extreme Fear, a record that ranks it 218th of the stocks we track for days spent in that zone, and it kept 123 days, the largest share, in plain Neutral.
The CFGI read: The floor tells the story. MetLife's worst reading of the entire window was 23 out of 100, Fear, on 1 August 2025 at $74.01, a day when 123 of 247 stocks sat in Fear or worse and 13 were in Extreme Fear. Even with that much dread around it, this crowd declined the basement, and it has shown little appetite for going lower since. An average of exactly 50 out of 100 completes the picture: a crowd that lives at the centre of the dial and leaves it reluctantly.
MetLife Fear and Greed Index History
Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.
The stresses it did register were orderly. Thirteen sessions of Fear or worse from 5 to 23 March 2026 tracked the slide towards the price low of $67.70 on 27 March, and the sharpest single-day drop, 29 points from 56 to 27, came earlier, on 17 November 2025. Each time the crowd walked back to Neutral rather than spiralling.
The end of the window is the warm part. An 11-session run of Greed or better from 2 to 20 July 2026 included a rare day of Extreme Greed, 80 out of 100 on 7 July at $90.46, and the shares closed at $94.33 on 24 July, their highest price of the entire period, up 18.5% from $79.63. At 62, Greed, one of the calmest crowds we track is as enthusiastic as it ever gets, which inside the overall market Fear and Greed Index is its own kind of signal: when the actuaries lean forward, note it.

MetLife Fear and Greed Index FAQ
What is the MetLife Fear and Greed Index today?
The MetLife Fear and Greed Index today is 52/100 on the daily view, showing Neutral. It summarizes live MetLife market sentiment on a 0 to 100 scale.
How is the MetLife Fear and Greed Index calculated?
CFGI combines price action, impulse, volatility, volume, technicals, social sentiment, dominance, search interest, whale activity and order book pressure into one MetLife fear and greed reading.
What is a good MetLife Fear and Greed Index reading?
There is no single good reading, because the index measures mood rather than value. Extreme Fear below 25 marks the points where sentiment is most washed out, and Extreme Greed above 75 the points carrying the most risk, so what counts as good depends on whether you are buying or selling.
How accurate is the MetLife Fear and Greed Index?
It reads sentiment accurately and predicts price poorly, and those are two different things. The score reflects what the MetLife market feels right now across ten live inputs, so treat it as a risk gauge rather than a forecast: it tells you how one-sided the crowd has become, not what happens next.
What does the MetLife Fear and Greed Index measure?
It measures the emotional state of the MetLife market on a 0 to 100 scale, from extreme fear at 0 to extreme greed at 100. CFGI builds that number from ten indicators including price action, volatility, volume, momentum, technicals and social sentiment, rather than from price alone.
How do I use the MetLife Fear and Greed Index?
Most people use it to size risk rather than to time entries. The extreme readings are the useful ones: they flag when the crowd has become one-sided, which is when caution costs least and greed costs most. Read it alongside price and volume, never on its own.
How often is the MetLife Fear and Greed Index updated?
The MetLife Fear and Greed Index is updated every 15 minutes, so the live reading can change as MetLife market conditions shift.
