VIX volatility index jumps after NYSE trading halt

A widely-followed measure of market volatility, the CBOE Volatility Index, jumped and remains elevated after the New York Stock Exchange halted trading in all securities at 11:32 a.m. Eastern. The index rose from around 18.11 immediately after the halt to trade as high as 19.10 before edging back to 18.62 in recent activity, a daily rise of around 15.5%. The index, often called Wall Street’s “fear gauge,” reflects traders’ expectatons for price fluctuations in the S&P 500 index. The NYSE said the trade halt, which remains in place, is the result of a technical glitch. Trading in NYSE-listed stocks has continued via other exchanges.

Don't get me wrong. Am not one who wants to see more QE. Just saying that's probably what's going to happen. It's simple. We're in a massive, global, secular Deflation. The FED cannot solve the underlying problem, in such an environment, which is insolvency. All they can do is inject liquidity.
