Stock quotes in this article:^DJI, ^GSPC, ^IXIC 

Bullishness is in the air as demonstrated by TheStreet.com RealMoney Barometer survey.

For the second straight week, the bulls took the poll, this time capturing 46%, or 2,101 of the 4,649 votes cast. The bears got 1,568, or 34%, while neutral came in with 980, or 21%.

For the second week in a row, commercial banks was picked as the sector most likely to rise and to fall.

The bullish outlook wasn't coinciding with the market action Tuesday, the last day of the second quarter.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 110 points, the Nasdaq Composite was lower by 15 points and the S&P 500 was down 12.

Below are the complete poll results.
