Keep an Eye on the VIX....

The Volatility Index (VIX) is spiking higher as the market is selling off further.

The VIX measures that amount of fear in the market. Typically it acts as a contrary indicator for the market. When it spikes up over 35, that typically has marked bottoms in the market. On January 22, it hit 37.

Today it is up 2.05 to 28.04
