In one chart: The VIX says the stock-market low may be in
The Cboe Volatility Index is a guide to human nature, says a prominent Wall Street bull. Canaccord Genuity analyst Tony Dwyer has characterized the stock market’s early February plunge as a phenomenon known as a “shock drop,” in which a correction is sharp enough to cause the 10-week rate of change in the Cboe Volatility Index (^VIX), or VIX, to spike to 125. The rate of change, or ROC, measures the percent change in price from one period to the next.

Stocks are vulnerable until Q1 earnings season gets underway: trader
As I indicated in the conclusion of last week’s note, equity markets were vulnerable to further weakness based primarily on February’s selloff and the technical setup provided in the previous week.

It was an eventful week both politically and economically.
