How these reports are built

Each month is computed from CFGI's stored daily readings of the Fear and Greed Index: the last 1d reading of every UTC day in the window and the stored daily S&P 500 level. Averages are over scored trading days only. A running month updates with every data cycle; a closed month is final. Cite as: CFGI, Stock Market Monthly Sentiment Reports, cfgi.io, 8 Sep 2026, https://cfgi.io/stock-market-monthly-report/.

Frequently asked questions

Where do these Stock Market monthly reports come from?
From CFGI's own stored daily readings: the last 1d Fear and Greed reading of each UTC day and the stored daily S&P 500 level. Every number is computed from those rows and nothing is written by a model. A running month updates daily; a closed month never changes.
What is the most volatile day?
For price, the day with the largest move against the previous scored day, in percent. For sentiment, the day with the largest move in index points. Both are signed, so a fall shows as a minus.
How does a month get a Partial record tag?
A closed month with fewer than half its trading days scored. The numbers are still real; they just cover less of the month.
Where are the quarterly reports?
On the Stock Market Quarterly Sentiment Reports page, built the same way from the same readings.

CFGI is a sentiment gauge, not financial advice. It does not predict price or tell users when to trade. These reports describe what the crowd did; they are a mirror of the crowd, not a forecast.

About CFGI
