After four consecutive up days, today's gap-up open was met with selling pressure throughout the session—a setup that often signals buyer exhaustion rather than fresh momentum. Early strength quickly faded as investors locked in profits, leaving major indices to close well off their intraday highs. The weakness wasn't isolated to a single sector or market-cap group; selling was broad-based across the market. From the equal-weight $Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF(RSP)$ and large-cap $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ , to the technology-heavy $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ and $Direxion NASDAQ-100 Equal Weighted Index Shares(QQQE)$
