The chart below is from my colleague Jim Colquitt of&nbsp;Armor ETF’s.\nThe top pane is the&nbsp;15-day moving average of VIX, which is on an inverted scale. The bottom pane is the S&amp;P 500 index.\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/245e68edb15dbfa4f8f146a789b89809\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"712\">\n<blockquote>\n “The market may have one last push higher over the next several weeks. Such will take the VIX even lower and complete the VIX wedge pattern.\n That pattern has been evident in the last three 10% or greater corrections.\n &nbsp;By this measure, the correction should begin somewhere around July 21st&nbsp;– August 10th.” – Jim Colquitt\n</blockquote>\nAs they say,&nbsp;“timing is everything.”While a July-August time frame is entirely possible, a June-July correction is just as likely. What is essential, as we will discuss momentarily, is understanding that risk is prevalent.\nMarket Exuberance Stretched Again\nIt isn’t just complacency that is suggestive of a short-term market correction. There are numerous others as well.\nAs my friend Daniel Lacalle recently posted,&nbsp;Morgan Stanley‘s market timing indicator is at levels that have typically coincided with market downturns. Just for reference, the current reading is the most&nbsp;“bearish”&nbsp;on record.\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c918064930caffdab80b05f255085f9\" tg-width=\"1085\" tg-height=\"459\">\nFurthermore, a host of other indicators posted by&nbsp;@Not_Jim_Crameralso suggests there are reasons for concern about a correction.\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/12bad2caf91007cd9b37c0ef04e90e29\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"547\">\nInflationary Warning\nLastly, this note from Tom Bowley caught my eye on Saturday.\n<blockquote>\n “The S&amp;P 500 reached a high on Friday of 4233.45, narrowly eclipsing the all-time high close of 4232.60 from May 7th.\n Unfortunately for the bulls, selling in the final few minutes ruined the breakout attempt. This false breakout, ever so slight, could be quite ominous for next week and there’s one MAJOR reason why. Inflation data.\n That May 7th all-time high came just days before the shocking April CPI data was released on May 12th. Now here we are back at the high again.\n As the late Yogi Berra might say, “it’s deja vu all over again!” I don’t believe inflation to be a problem, but just the possibility of it could trigger scary headlines and encourage selling in the week ahead.”\n &nbsp;–&nbsp;Tom Bowley, Stockcharts\n</blockquote>\nThe chart below shows the differential between the annual rates of change of the Producer Price Index (PPI) and the Consumer Price Index (CPI.)&nbsp;It should not be surprising that when PPI surges well ahead of CPI, equity markets tend to run into problems.Such is because this shows producers are unable to pass the inflation along to their customers.&nbsp;Consequently, this leads to reduced earnings and a repricing of risk assets.\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1bf24f2c1d3200f6fdb7a14a83d419b5\" tg-width=\"967\" tg-height=\"519\">\nTom goes on to state inflation will not be a problem longer-term correctly. However, in the near term, the surge in inflation will weigh on outlooks, creating corrective actions.\nThe Problem With Technicals\nI want to reiterate a point from the most recent&nbsp;newsletter:\n<blockquote>\n The biggest problem is that technical indicators do not distinguish between a consolidation, a correction, or an outright bear market.\n &nbsp;As such, if you ignore the signals as they occur, by the time you realize it’s a deep correction, it is too late to do much about it.\n Therefore, we must treat each signal with the same respect and adjust risk accordingly. The opportunity costs of doing so are minimal.\n</blockquote>\nIf we reduce risk and the market continues to rise, we can increase risk exposures. Yes, we sacrifice some short-term performance. However, if we reduce risk and the market declines sharply, we not only protect capital during the decline but have the liquidity to deploy at lower price levels.\nSuch is the problem with“buy and hold”&nbsp;strategies.&nbsp;Yes, you will perform in line with the market, but given that you didn’t&nbsp;“sell high,”&nbsp;there is no cash available with which to&nbsp;“buy low”&nbsp;in the future.\nWith that stated, here is the most significant problem of technical analysis.All of the warnings noted above suggest there is a risk of a correction in the near term.&nbsp;However, technical analysis does not differentiate between a 5% pullback, a 10% correction, or a“bear market.”\nYou will only find that out once it begins, and such is why risk management is essential.\n<blockquote>\n “Risk management is much like driving a car. If there is a blind spot ahead, and you don’t tap on the brakes to control your speed, you are unlikely to avoid the hazard ahead.\n Yes, tapping on the brakes to provide more control over the car will slow your arrival time to your destination. However, being late is a much better option than not getting there at all.”\n</blockquote>\nJust A Warning\nAgain, I am not implying, suggesting, or stating that such signals mean going 100% to cash.&nbsp;What I am suggesting is that when&nbsp;“sell signals”&nbsp;are given, that is the time when individuals should perform some essential portfolio risk management such as:\n<ul>\n <li>Trim back winning positions to original portfolio weights:Investment Rule: Let Winners Run</li>\n <li>Sell positions that simply are not working (if the position was not working in a rising market, it likely won’t in a declining market.)Investment Rule: Cut Losers Short</li>\n <li>Hold the cash raised from these activities until the next buying opportunity occurs.Investment Rule: Buy Low</li>\n</ul>\nAs stated, there is minimal risk in&nbsp;“risk management.”&nbsp;In the long term, the results of avoiding periods of severe capital loss will outweigh missed short-term gains.\nWhile I agree you can not“time the markets,”you can “manage risk” to improve your long-term outcomes.","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
