The past 83 weeks have not only been quite rewarding for investors, they've been history-making. The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index is now into its 83rd week without dishing out a 5% correction, gaining 32% since early November 2016. The blue-chip index's return through the first few weeks of January 2018 was its best start to a new trading year in more than three decades.

This kind of move brings great risks, and sometimes, great opportunity.

Even the slightest hint of trouble could spark an avalanche of profit-taking by investors who already have big gains in tow. We've gotten a taste of that lately, with a couple of sizable setbacks reminding us that the market doesn't always rise. On the flip side, for longer-minded investors, selloffs in quality blue-chip stocks could be viewed as an attractive buying opportunity.

Here, investors will get a look at some of the biggest near-term pullback risks among Wall Street's most recognizable names. Each company is doing just fine, to be clear. In fact, most of these names recently have been touted as long-term bullish ideas by Kiplinger.

Those calls are based on each company's merits, however. These 10 blue-chip stocks probably won't be able to sidestep a short-term pullback if the recent rally's weight simply becomes too much to shoulder. But that would be just fine for investors seeking better buy points.

Aircraft maker Boeing (, $356.94) is among the at the moment. The company has upped its payout for six consecutive years. And given its outlook that calls for the purchase of 41,000 new passenger jets over the course of the next 20 years, it's one of those stocks you can comfortably buy into and let it simmer for years on end.
