Market Tops: The vertical lines indicate the specific points in time when each market peaked, showing the staggered pattern of market tops.
Performance and Volatility: The NASDAQ shows the highest volatility and growth over the period, reflecting the tech sector's influence. The S&P 500 and Russell 2000 also show significant growth, while the TSX exhibits more stability with less volatility.
Conclusion:
This analysis provides a clear understanding of the timing and order of market peaks across different indices, highlighting the importance of monitoring smaller companies (RUT) for early signs of market tops and the sequential impact on larger indices (NDX, SPX) and the more stable TSX.
