Warp, you are expecting a lot out of the VIX.

My observation has been that it usually signals an intermediate term bottom anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks early, maybe more. We are only a few weeks along now, so there's still hope.

We've got the obvious revelation that there won't be a second half recovery (again) working against us, and my biggest fear is fleeing foreign capital - but international markets are tanking too so where would they go?

The great majority seem to be expecting a short rally that lets them get out before the big plunge at a later date. I've been hoping for a rally to stock up on puts. Are we all chasing a dream?
