Low Volume / High Price A Bearish Combination

While the SPX was closing at a new short-term high yesterday the NYSE volume was coming in at the lowest level in over two weeks according to my data. Over the last several years this has not been a good combination - even when the market is in an uptrend. This is demonstrated in the study below.



This would suggest the market may be susceptible to a pullback over the next few days.
