S-V agreement: "the fluctuation in various global indices..." is singular subject then considering the tense of the verb "indicate". Therefore eliminate A, B.
C out because phrase "may be indicating" seems to be awkward
Option E : use of both "possibility" and "might be", which is redundant. Hence eliminate.
D correct.

POE:
Subject - fluctuation (singular). So, the verb should be singular too; 'indicates'.
Eliminate (A), (B) & (C).
Eliminate (E) - 'might be' & 'possibility' are the same thing. hence, they can not come together.
