Summary
Michael Oliver argues the U.S. stock market is undergoing a slow, multi-month topping process rather than starting a new bull trend.
Current market behavior mirrors historical major tops, featuring sideways action, fake breakdowns, and final rallies that trap investors.
A confirmed downtrend signal requires SPX to break below the 6600-6785 range, indicating underlying structural market weakness.
