SPX - daily

VIX - daily

Summary

US equities opened on a weak note, an opening bounce attempt failed, with the market spiraling into the late afternoon. Ongoing price action is outright ugly, as sp'4K should soon be lost.

Volatility picked up, the VIX settling +14.0% to 36.45.

Meanwhile...


Unleaded gasoline: 156.9 pence per liter, x 3.785 (liter> US gallon) x 1.3126 (GBP >USD) = $7.80.
