What is a Death Cross
The death cross is a chart pattern indicating the potential for a major selloff. The death cross appears on a chart when a stock’s short-term moving average crosses below its long-term moving average. Typically, the most common moving averages used in this pattern are the 50-day and 200-day moving averages.

SUMMARY:
As with any indicator the death cross indicator is not perfect . The S&P has been in a Bull market going on 10 years now so it is very likely this Death Cross may have some meaning to it this time.
