Summary
Last weeks giant red candle has been confirmed with a further significant decline.
Based on previous cycles, the VIX will likely remain low for at least another 4-6 weeks.
*if anyone knows what the record for consecutive daily declines on the VIX is, let me know! I have to wonder, if equities rally on Tuesday, with the VIX lower for an eighth day, that would probably be a record.
