Notice that this change in the market is framed as a weakness. A market has stalled despite the market not moving anywhere. Something false about momentum is mentioned. A market is neither a force nor does it have velocity. A market cannot slow down. The word flat-lining is used, with the implication something is critically wrong.

One bank suggests "prices could drop" even though we all know prices are always changing. One doctor makes another claim about what could happen. The article finishes on a series of possibilities.
