The US market continues to react directly the Italian election forecasts. Its likely going to be a real mess into Tuesday..at which time we then have round'1 of the Bernanke. VIX is confirming the turn lower.

Summary
Its kinda interesting now, but I sure won't be remotely pleased until I see a daily close <1497..and even then, I simply can't envision a near term scenario where we are trading <1480.
There is a massive rising support in those lower 1480s....and that'd probably equate to a full VIX gap-fill around 17.75/18.00

In other news.. Affymax is having issues...with a drug recall. It has a product line of one..and it can't sell any of it.
It doesn't get much uglier than that. Wanna catch that falling knife? Huge volume. Despite the fall, could easily be <$1 later in the week.
time to cook!
