Couple this with the multiple signals for exhaustion that are typical near market tops, it warrants taking action.
Troubling technical signs We've seen the SPDR S & P 500 Trust (SPY) and Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) both exhibit higher highs in price while momentum and their advance-decline lines print lower highs.
And lastly, these same signals are showing up across the major sectors, and individual stocks that have led this rally such as Nvidia.
Overall, these are signs of exhaustion for this rally and raises the probability of a pullback.
With the Wall Street's fear gauge, the CBOE Volatility Index ( VIX) , trading just above 13, purchasing downside protection on a portfolio using SPY options is relatively inexpensive.
