The S&P 500 is showing signs that the uptrend is becoming fragile. As you can see there is a very clear rising wedge pattern developing on the daily chart this is a classic bearish reversal pattern and it indicates a shift in supply and demand from bullish to bearish as the buyers can no longer keep prices propped up. This pattern is not confirmed yet as it has yet to break the bottom support trendline but it still can act as a stern warning to be careful going long here.
The bearish signal in my opinion would be a break of the bottom support on large volume this would signal traders are beginning to panic and exit long positions and the selling cascade can have a big impact. Target wise If it does break down I think a retest of the previous all time high makes sense but if you want to go off the technical price target it would technically be at the bottom of the wedge at $410 which is bold...
RSI is also showing bearish divergences popping up and we are very extended away from the 200 day moving average it is no surprise to say that stocks just may be overvalued and far too extended and probably ripe for profit taking.
Also on the fundamental side of things inflation has been coming out sticker and not coming down as seen in the recent CPI and PPI reports which dampens the expectations of early rate cuts and continues to support the "Higher for longer" narrative which again is not a good thing.
Overall I am thinking this is looking extremely dangerous and based on technical and fundamental factors I would absolutely not be loading up on fresh longs especially on leverage I would tread carefully and consider thinking twice before you make a decision.
