What Is Moody's?
The jittery judge.
Moody's is one half of the duopoly that grades the world's debt, assigning the credit ratings governments and corporations borrow against ever since John Moody began scoring railroad bonds in 1909, alongside a fast-growing analytics business. There is an irony in its file: the company whose product is the measurement of risk carries one of the most fear-prone crowds we track, ranked 25th on our stock board for days spent in Extreme Fear, with 11 of them in this window.
The CFGI read: February 2026 is the chapter that defines it. The crowd spent eight consecutive sessions in Extreme Fear from 3 to 12 February and bottomed at 8 out of 100 on 11 February at $412.23, which was also the lowest price of the window. The detail that matters is the timing: by 11 February only 52 of 245 stocks remained in Fear or worse and just 12 in Extreme Fear. The market had already surfaced. Moody's crowd went down with everyone and stayed down alone.
Moody's Fear and Greed Index History
Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.
Even the recovery was distrusted. On 23 February, less than a fortnight after the bottom, the score fell another 36 points from 62 to 26, the sharpest drop of the window. The brighter passages were real but brief: a 28-point jump from 36 to 64 on 5 January 2026 opened a 10-session run of Greed or better that carried the price to its high of $539.61 on 15 January, and the sole day of Extreme Greed, 84 out of 100 on 7 July 2026 at $498.78, lasted exactly that, a single day.
The shares ended the window down 1.4%, from $476.27 to $469.77, with the crowd back at 24, Fear, on 24 July 2026, well below its average of 48. Inside the market-wide Fear and Greed Index Moody's earns its place as a nerve ending: a crowd professionally acquainted with downside, behaving like it.
