Yes. It has been the case that a bull or bear market ends when volatility increases with a break from the mean flat random walk. The volatility of the action in a base is low reflecting lack of activity or low perceived risk or other factors. With individual stocks low bases almost always have low relative volatility. In individuals or averages price undergoes something called "compression" which is a regime of sustained volatility lower than any previous phase of volatility. The degree of compression relative to previous cycles depends on other factors. With averages we don't seem to have quiet tops as occurred in the distant past. This is due to interventionism.
