This is just for fun, not to be taken too seriously
For anybody expecting a correction: In 1998 financial scares in Russia and Asia (which had a limited impact on world economic growth) led to a massive correction in the US and Europe. SPX declined over 20 percent.
What's interesting is that the reversal started the day after July opex, this year the analog would be July 18th - that's next Monday. Unlikely such a massive move is due, but let's bear in mind ...

Also just for fun... the 1957 analog.
There have been two occasions when a flat year in the Dow has been followed by a steep January decline (1948 and 1957).
So far, 2016 has been following the '57 analog pretty well both in terms of price and divergences.
The divergences get better with today's all time highs.
A repeat is highly improbable but worth a watch out of the corner of one's eye...
