"With markets up so much as we're up since October, people get nervous," Lerner told Yahoo Finance. "They want to rotate into something a little more defensive, take some profit taking ... It's also just saying, 'Hey, what hasn't worked and what could have an opportunity to do some catching up or hold up better should the market correct?'"
Another key movement has come in economic data. After economic growth continued to surprise Wall Street to start the year, data took a turn in April, highlighted by a weaker-than-expected jobs report andAnd while this doesn't mean the US economy is definitely slowing down, it has caught investors' attention.
