Re: VIX, I've read a few VIX'ers who claim this week's lower VIX is bullish divergence, but I tend to disagree. Better to see some fear when making new lows. No need to take out prev highs, but I'd expect a VIX bump at least... Oversold in a bull market is a buy, oversold in bear markets tends to be where 'bad things happen.' P/C is swamped by call-buying lately; everybody looking for the bounce. I mean, it's either silly at this level, or everybody's right and we're due for a bounce...page over to ISEE's call/put page and notice retail call-buyers have been buying calls the whole way down last week. Hell, maybe they're right too. Should be another interesting week.
