Markets have posted three straight weeks of gains, but the risk-reward equation is becoming less attractive. With the S&P 500 extended above its 50- and 200-day moving averages, potential upside may be limited compared with the downside of a normal market correction.
Meanwhile, volatility remains unusually compressed, puts are relatively inexpensive, and seasonal risks are approaching. Lance Roberts explains why this combination warrants attention, why portfolios were recently rebalanced, and why inexpensive hedges may make sense as insurance against a volatility spike.
