    There's a fly in the ointment. Some conflicting signals. Well, do we ever gets an all-clear???

    HYG is down today, and not small (0.7%). But i think VIX still wins out because so many people pay attention to this breakdown and becomes more bullish.

    I would say the $VIX

    I would say the $VIX would be a better indicator of overall market sentiment.  A lot of people short or on the sidelines waiting for the next big drop that might never happen.   I am not a true believe until way stay above the 50 day MA on the SP500 for more than a day.  I need a couple of days to prove the strength of the market.  

    Absolutely agree. Need to see

    Absolutely agree. Need to see follow through on Monday.

    But the SPY has an bullish ally today (comapre to last Friday) with VIX breaks below 38 support for the first time. And the drop seems impulsive so far. Especially with the negative Remdesivir news.  Seems like market is willing to look past quite a bit of bad bews.

    Seems like what's going on

    Seems like what's going on now is more of what we've had though the whole bull market -- nothing as good for the market as the Fed and the Treasury adding how many trillions in liquidity? The market seems to continue to value money printing more than everything else combined. 

    So much newly minted money
