p. any positive close there for that one will be another new all-time high. we're up 2.25 points. in today's closing exchange, we have chris retsler, and our own rick santelli, of course. larry glazer, i mean, we talk often about this wall of worry the market climbs. u you say the market's already gone over the wall. >> you know, they say the bull markets do climb a wall of worry. the news flashes were over the wall and on the other side, we're looking at green. that's what we're seeing here. the advice to investors is, don't be afraid to take a profit. don't be afraid to transition your portfolio, and don't chase what's going to get you in trouble. some of those income-producing stocks may burn you. you may be overstaying your welcome. it pays to be vigilant and not get too greedy or complacent. >> and you're also saying that some of the bigger income-paying stocks are too expensive here. that it's time to get cyclical, yeah? >> look, since the beginning of the year, one of the greatest anomalies we've seen in the market is that the defensive sectors and defensive stocks have had their greatest relative returns in the bul

p 500 is negative as well by a touch. the nasdaq bucking that trend, is up slightly, by about five points. >> let's get straight to our "closing bell" exchange, michael g guyed here, and chris girsch. rick, i want to start with you, there's a lot of focus again on what the fed may or may not do from here. there's the good exit and the bad exit, but what do you mean by that? >> if the fed exits because the unemployment rate goes down and the economy picks up, that's a good exit. they can exit, the stock market would hold in. if they exit because there's a fear of inflation or that the markets are getting overheated, that could be crippling for the stock market. and i fear that if there's talk about an exit early, like this summer, it's going to be the bad kind and it's going to be very bad for the markets, because we don't have an economy that's moving forward. we don't have unemployment going down, because jobs are being created. we have it going down because the participation rate is falling. why is the fed exiting, good or bad? >> chris, pick up on that a second. can you connect it to the kind of activity that we're seeing, say, in markets today? >> i think that the marke

chris? >> i would have thought that 50 points ago was about the high for the year, so -- >> 50 what, dow points or s&p points? >> on the s&p, s&p points. >> okay, but you were urging clients since october of last year, you were urging them to go ahead and buy all the way up to 50 points ago on the s&p? >> absolutely. and i think now it's just recycle what you're doing and change from, shall we say basic consumer staples to old tech. i think that makes a lot of sense. so, just the movement in the market between sectors. wash, repent, repeat cycle type thing. >> chris, where were you? >> i was -- >> okay, all right, i thought you were chris. never mind. i've never seen you guys before because we're getting all new guys because all the other ones we can't use anymore. michael, were you long since october? >> yeah, we've been bullish for a long time and for the simple reason, frankly, that there isn't a whole lot of other exciting alternatives. equities are better values and have been for quite some time, so we've been looking for around 1,600 to 1,650 on the s&p for the year. >> all right. so, do you sti
