Yes, this (tax-deferred selling) is my opinion on what will happen, and it would potentially push the end of the 9th month cycle, which is late now, though not too late (should happen by mid Jan). It could snowball from tax selling into a decent consolidation, or even a reasonable facsimile to the Nikkei parallel drop at this point.

In early 2000, many may well remember the last time this situation occurred:

Though being the second bubble runup, would people be as quick to reenter, I wonder?

Actually, I had the top next Monday (Jan 5 #msg-2000425) not today and it may be advanced by a day or two if exuberance gets out of hand.
