higher valuations than most bulls have achieved, a flat yield curve
with rising interest rate pressures, an extended period of internal divergence as measured by breadth and other market action, and complacency at best and excessive bullishness at worst, as measured by various sentiment indicators; 3) there is a moderate but still not compelling
risk of an oncoming recession, which would become more of a
factor if we observe a substantial widening of credit spreads and weakness in the ISM Purchasing Managers Index in the months ahead, and; 4) there remains substantial potential for U.S. dollar weakness coupled
with «unexpectedly» persistent inflation pressures, particularly if we do observe economic weakness.
