Benkea, read my comment about the VIX of yesterday. the VIX is misleading here...people always think the VIX reacts only to put demand: this is not true. in it's calculation as many calls as puts are used. from overall OEX put volume it was obvious that put demand reached it's LOWEST LEVEL EVER just before the first break in the market. in the meantime, equity call demand exploded to levels also never before seen. overall CBOE p/c ratios were hitting all-time lows for weeks on end, and the amount of outstanding call contracts hit all time highs along with the indices. in short, options speculation on a further rise in the market has never been so pronounced. regards, hb
