In 2013, the market had one of its best years ever. The broad market, as represented by the S&P 500 index, was up 29.6%. Typically, after a strong year, the market will continue on its course. After a nearly unbroken upward climb since March 6, 2009, one of the longest bull markets in history, the market was due for a pause, maybe even a correction (defined as a 10% drop). This year the market continued to reach all-time highs and then took a breather. The market appears tired, but its current pause so far appears in character and no cause to panic.
