Don't get lulled into thinking the major market selloff on Tuesday was a one-off.

Without question, the fact stocks didn't fall through a trap door on Wednesday was a feather in the caps of the bulls. All the elements were in place for a follow-through plunge: a vicious, cowardly attack out front of the U.K. Parliament, rising fears on the Trump/Ryan healthcare bill passing and a growing number of forecasters coming out from under their rocks to proclaim the bull market is about to die.

Not helping matters was a continued drumbeat of retail death stories such as Paylesspossibly closing 500 stores, Bebe (BEBE) on the verge of shuttering 170 stores and Sears Holdings' (SHLD) CFO spreading #fakenews in a new blog post that the retailer is a "viable" entity. It's not, especially after the language it slipped in its new annual report on Tuesday.

So the setup for another re-trenchment was certainly in place. And here's the brutal reality: it continues to be in place, and the Dow Transports and financials are flashing warning signs hinting at just that happening in the not too distant future. The Dow Jones Transportation Average reached a high on March 1, spurred by optimism on the knock-on effect of a Trump stimulus plan. But the index is now down 5% so far this month as indications emerge that Trump won't be able to pass key legislation as quickly as the market expected.

As for the banks -- a leading group post election -- they were serious laggards on Tuesday's pullback. The Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLF) - Get Report has shed about 4.3% over the last month. Bank stocks selling off despite the specter of higher interest rates is alarming, and suggests the U.S. economy may not get the "Trump Bump" this year and into 2018 the market has so hotly anticipated.

Remember, the moves across many areas of the stock market since Trump was elected have been fueled by multiple expansion, not companies smashing through earnings estimates and projecting bigger gains for the year ahead. With that as a backdrop, key areas of the market lagging and Trump failing to deliver anything but hot air thus far, having more cash on hand than the norm over the past year seems like a wise decision.
