The rally in the S&P 500 could be running out of steam, StockMonster's Guy Adami said Tuesday.
"The good news for the bulls, I guess, is the fact that we're hovering around these levels," he said on CNBC's "Fast Money."
Adami noted that the market reacted predictably after the latest jobs report, followed by an expected selloff.
Next, he said, there's probably a "violent move up," followed by a subsequent decline.
But the stock rally could be topping out.
"I think we're dangerously close now to the highs for the year," he said.
Josh Brown of Fusion Analytics said being in stocks was the correct stance at this point, and warned against calling a top in the market, even as the Dow Jones Industrial Average logged an eighth straight day of gains.
"That's a real dangerous game to play," he said. "I don't think we should focus on catching the top here."
Brown said that he would continue to hold the stocks in which he believed but wasn't adding new positions.
"I think that's the right posture for this moment in time," he said.
