Wall Street may be getting a bit too excited about the stock market's hot start to the new year.

has already jumped nearly 3% for 2020, rising more than 1% this week to reach fresh record highs. But as the market keeps going up, traders are becoming overly optimistic about equities, data compiled by Ned Davis Research shows.

Ned Davis Research's data is not the only one showing potential euphoria in the market, either. Other experts point out that valuations are at historic highs on some measures while earnings expectations are lackluster at best. Some also note trade tensions between China and the U.S. could flare up once again even after the signing of a phase one agreement. If investors are not careful, they could suffer steep losses after the market's recent rally.

Equities have largely refused to go down in 2020 thus far. Through 12 trading days this year, the S&P 500 has closed lower just four times. The biggest of those four declines came on Jan. 3, when the broad average slid 0.7%.
