As for the main market. well, it'd seem we'll be trading consistantly in the 1650/40s tomorrow, that should be enough to kick the VIX to the 23s - the Dec' 2012 spike high.
Q. How much of a market upset do the political maniacs need to motivate them to reach an agreement?
5% ? 10% ? Although I realise many will be seeking 15/20% 'briefly' within the near term.
