A pullback is “long overdue,” said King Lip, chief strategist at Baker Avenue Wealth Management. “I think it's a garden variety correction at this point.” "We're not surprised that there was a bit of a pullback," said Sonu Varghese, global macro strategist at Carson Group, who has been using the recent weakness as an opportunity to increase positions in small-cap stocks.Still, investors have grown cautious. Clients of BofA sold $800 million in U.S. equities in the latest week, the third straight week they were net sellers, the firm said last Tuesday.

"We have repositioned a small number of positions, but I am waiting to see how earnings look before making any big changes to our portfolios."
