James, if you read those links i posted on the VIX, Schaeffer has a nice little study using 20 day bands on the vix and a pop out of those bands depending on which direction is usually a sign of fear or complacency.

We popped out three times to the upside in May and early June, so evidently enough fear was generated to create the power to fuel this rally. Somebody buying poots today and at the end of the day friday sending the vix back up.

The Vix bottomed on dec 23rd and the market peaked on 1/6, so it's not unheard of for the vix not to turn on a dime with the market.
