The market isn’t falling…
but it’s no longer going up easily.

Today’s session said a lot without doing much.

Indexes closed modestly lower after trading green earlier. No panic. No capitulation. But also no real buying pressure.

That matters.

When markets stop reacting to good conditions and start fading intraday strength, it usually means one thing:

Momentum is weakening.

Under the surface:
• Small caps underperforming
• Rates creeping higher
• Geopolitics back in focus
• Leadership still narrow

Nothing is breaking.
But nothing is expanding either.

That’s not a crash signal.
It’s a fatigue signal.

The kind of market where:
Upside requires effort
Downside happens faster

We’re not in a sell-off.
We’re in a market that’s starting to think.
