When the Government tell a lie enough times society will begin to believe it.
The Volatility Index (VIX), which measures ‘fear’ in the marketplace.
This is at its ALL-TIME lowest point in its entire 27 year existence
It hit 8.84 last week, compared to above 80 in 2008.
Remember 2008? Major Crash right, when this Crashes 2008 was a picnic with all the trimmings.
Not sure where you are getting your numbas from but the VIX traded into the $7's for sure prior to the 2008 meltdown. The lows for pretty much EVERYTHING (that trades on the exchanges via a ticker symbol) are set in either the wild west world of after hours trading or the "idiots gone wild!" world of premarket trading...where the compooterized trading wizrds get their chance to "hit the sell button hard!" becuz the jobs report numba...or the overnight news out of China...or whatever the catlist is sets em off into a frenzied whirlwind of "oh shit!" style excitement. :-) That low you quoted on the VIX for this "run" is correct and "valid" and it may end up being "the" actual low that is set in the queen of the sexy VIXens...queen VIX. UVXY, TVIX, VXX...These gals will rob collectors of their stored fortunes...when the sexy VIXens party...you will sell everything you own of value at a tremendous discount to party with them. The only reason UVXY is old enough to drink is becuz she is carrying a fake I.D. A few weeks ago she was still a minor. :O I'd suggest you hide your valuables becuz it's rock n roll, headbanging chicks with tattoos that can drink you under the table. The VIXens aren't for every guy out there. Broken hearts..broken marriages...do you "really" want that? I'll handle teh VIXens. Lookk at this most recent call...and tell me I don't know how to handle them.

I'm also working on getting Tessie down to a new lower weight of 280 lbs, which would put her within at least a weight class where a few more men would mud wrestle with her. Follow my Tessie diet as I feel it will be "revolutionary." Even greg will notice Tessie at 280 lbs. Will he mention my diet at Greg Hunter's utube though. I doubt it...but we'll see. :-)

Do you know what the VIX is?
Know what it is? I'm trying to reign the beitch in right now...else Greg is going to crap out of his 2 longs (as logged at TraderChoice). Do I know what the VIX is. Do you know where your wallet is? :O I'll let the sexy VIXens know you called them an "it." You long GOOGL or somethin? :-)

So your shorting the VIX ?
I just sent the VIX out for more Ripple. Only a "reprieve" for anyone who is still long the market. Weekend is coming and it's a party weekend. Sexy VIXens just want to have fun. I'd short Oprah. I have her on a new diet too. One you won't read about in the rags you can buy at the checkout counter at the grocery store. Shot teh VIX? You want your nutz ripped off and your wallet stolen?
lets review your USO puts ended with a 100% loss. your SPY 240 puts ended with a whopping 100% loss and your SLV puts ended with a spectacular 100% loss. Keep it up or should I say down joe. Now go tell greg he farked up dummfark
