U.S. Stock Market: Distribution Has Been Taking Place For Many Months

When you have bear markets something comes along and triggers it, and we think it is because of it, but it is always going on underneath anyway.

So this time around if we look at the United States stock market it has been going sideways for 18 to 24 months if you look at the advance/ decline or other indicators. In many circles that is called distribution in other words the smart guys are getting out and selling to the not so smart guys.
