<I'm wondering if the VIX was really that complacent> Well I'm not that strong of a VIX follwer either but I have noticed that the VIX usually is a lot higher when the PC Ratio is so High. After all, the VIX is a measure of Options Volitility, but I think it is measured by the volitility in the OEX index (S&P 100). The OEX is approaching critical support which looks like it might blow through coming out of the right shoulder of a H&S on the Daily. This would make the VIX jump up to more normal levels as seen in the recent past. Let's see what the Book to Bill brings us. If it's bad, we get the blowoff bottom, if it's good, more distribution on Semi Upgrades. Have a nice night.
