    Matt, The divergence is clear, can you draw any conclusions from this maybe with historical perspective?   I did put in more time than I thought to download the data (goes back to 2007 someone back calculated the Vix of the Vix, aka VVIX).   Spreadsheet is here for any intrepid analyst to add the SPX on the second left side axis, and zoom in to tighter timeframes.    The recent sharp move up in the VVIX / VIX ratio does not look unprecedented.    I did some offset averages and didn't really see anything compelling.
