But there are plenty of flashing warning signs out there that investors should be careful not to ignore. Rising interest rates may not be problematic just yet, but a tightening cycle may only be in its early stages. Concerns about the economy, and of course, sky-high valuations for many stocks, could make the broad index due for a significant decline.
