These drops are beginning to lose their shock value, to me at least. It is to the point where an up day(where gains can be kept) would really surprise me. I have absolutely no faith in the market anymore.

Great post Michael. The VIX closed today at 49.18. Its highest close since the July bottom:

stockcharts.com[h,a]daclyyay[pb50,200!d20,2!c20!c10][vc60][iUb14!Uk14!La12,26,9]&pref=G

Unfortunately we do not have the corresponding high volume delineating panic to signal a bottom yet.

The analysts seem to be doing all they can to create enough panic to get a bottom put in for us this week. What are the chances that the market will react well to President Bush's speech tonight?

I sure wish we had seen 2.2 billion shares traded on the NASDAQ today instead of 1.22 because I am itching to go long but not just yet. I'm going to let that itch go unscratched just a little while longer because despite the high VIX readings we are further away from capitulation than we were in July at that short term bottom.

Oh almost forgot<gg> All the above is in my not so humble and all too often wrong opinion.
