From Minyanville buzz today:

"I'm absolutely slammed so lemme hop. Before I do, I'll also
note that vols (VXO) haven't "come in" (for sale) with this
rally, a fact not lost on trading desks and "short vol" funds
across the Street. Negative gamma is a tricky witch if you're
a step slow and that is likely the cause of some of these out-
sized moves."

Translation: Some of these funds are sitting on losses that
won't come down and are accumulating more losses during all of
the spikes, up and down.
