That's very useful to remember indeed.
1. Required % of "everyone's portfolio".
2. Erstwhile non-investors piling in or having it explained to them.
3. Front pages more than once a month without real news.

Those are market psychology indications of the top.
Perhaps there are theoretical ones, such as when the pretax yields are generally no more than twice what you can get on a one year certificate of deposit(In Canada we call it a GIC). My reasoning is that when something is twice something else the novice who isn't too numerate will understand, whereas if it were 90% larger than the other thing, the difference might not be so clear.
