I'm not sure I agree. Yes, it is a measure of the implied volitility of the market, but there is complacency/fear factor that drives options buying decisions. If I think the market is going to go up, I am going to be willing to pay less for those hedging options.

As far as the number of bears left, First, I don't think that SI is representative sample, but more importantly, I notice a few less bears than a few months ago.

And the fact is, we are far from nobody giving a shit. People in silicon valley are still expecting to get rich off of options. There are still a hell of a lot of bulls left for this to be the end of the bear.
