Brendan Wood International Shareholder Confidence Index at 64%,
lowest level year to date


The BWI Index forecasts less investor demand for big cap stocks worldwide in 4Q. When big cap investors also signaled a 20% drop in their “net buyer” plans, the index fell accordingly with a minor impact on prices.

The Brendan Wood Index polls the buying intentions of 2000 portfolio managers running $51+ trillion worldwide and reports on a weekly basis.

New York, NY, October 6th, 2021

 

Net Buying Intentions

Are you planning to be a net buyer in the near term 3 months? (Net buyer means own more $ in equities than you do today.)

Yes = 66% (67% last week) (83% August 3rd 2021) (66% September 2020) (95% April 2020)
No = 34% (33% last week) (17% August 3rd 2021) (34% September 2020) (5% April 2020)

Brendan Wood Shareholder Confidence Index which measures investor demand, dropped 4.5% in 3Q predicting noticeable price attrition amongst big cap stocks. Current Shareholder Confidence Index = 64%

Another BWI Metric, the Net Buyer Index, also came in at 64% down from 83% in August 2021.

“The Brendan Wood indices continue to foretell rising and falling investor demand for big cap stocks across the world and the resulting impact on prices. The influence of big ticket investors will not be denied in the market. Although BWI intel focuses on the buyside demand for individual stocks, the collective results across 1400 stocks owned by 2000 large investors predict sector by sector and overall demand for equities in the forthcoming markets. Proactive asset managers look at a lot of data while making investment decisions. Demand side data like this is a new dimension, accurate and succinct.”

“Our clients are highly interested in why the “demand” for the stocks they own or of the companies they run advances/recedes. Answering those questions with objective intelligence makes for a richer investment process and better run shareholder aware companies.”
