Midweek spooky news

SPX - daily

VIX - daily

Summary

US equities opened broadly flat, but there was some 'spooky news'... with the UK committing an act of war against Russia, having fired a barrage of 'Storm Shadow' missiles into the Kursk region.

The SPX cooled to 5860, if recovering to settle effectively flat.

Volatility picked up, the VIX printing 18.79, but cooling back to settle +4.9% at 17.16
