After closing at a record low last night below 9, VIX is trading with an 8 handle this morning (amid somewhat chaotic trading). VIX has never traded below 9 two days in a row… ever.
As we noted yesterday, it’s only traded below 9.0 on seven days since the index was created 28 years ago – six of them in the last six months, the other in Dec 1993.
And The Dow tops 25,000 – the fastest 1000-point leap in history… (Dow first crossed 24k on 11/30)
Time for a new Dow 30k hat soon?
Meanwhile the yield curve continues to collapse to new cycle lows…
