The VIX direction is down but the market -- at least in the past week -- has done nothing with it. And that is what matters. So the VIX either signals a forthcoming turn, or neutrality, but not bullishness, IMO, as it has meant absolutely nothing to the market with a 13% decline in the VIX. It is not bullish, short or intermediate term, to have higher complacency but not higher stock prices. It means that complacency is pushing on a string IMO. It is a hint of a topping process and investors should take note.

Guys, the VIX & VXN moving averages are better topping indicators than the absolute numbers, IMO. See this previous post with links to charts showing the May top and the current "top".
