WTF. Sounds like 180 degree turn. I don't subscribe to realmoney so I don't know the context, but

Heck, I could write a column saying whne the market's up "bears are hurtin'"

and when the market's down "we were too optimistic"

Is his advice actionable or insightful at all?

He just gets caught up in the sentiment.

Every good reversal we have had, he capitulated right at the top. it's a 7-8 Standard Deviation Event

The DSI (tm) must give his sentiment a 4X inverse weighting...

... and notice his name doesn't end in a vowel.
