Stock investors with a contrary opinion have the view that whenever a large majority of market participants are bullish, then these investors have already bought stock and thus hoping for further gains. This makes the stock vulnerable to a reversal as the large numbers of investors sell their stock if any negative market information arises. For this reason, the stock investors with a contrary opinion will not buy any stock until the excessive market bullishness subsides.
