US Equities appear to be putting in a long-term top. This is evident if we look at the monthly FTSE100 (VGK) chart, which US equities correlate with, and the US Materials Select Sector (XLB), which is a component index of the SP500 (SPY). Both are at monthly timeframe long-term resistance. After that, look at the Dow (DIA) correlation from the current Dow, to the Dow from 1928-1930.
