Default Volatility Index

This is hopefully some good news that will stick around for a while. The VIX (Volatility Index) the lowest this morning at 19.

The VIX is an index that provides informantion to help calculate market volatility for a 30 day period. This hasnt happend since back in may of 2008. With this being 2010 hopefully this is the sign we have been waiting for that things are going to be turning around for the better now.

When the VIX hits 30 or above this usally means that there is a good chance of investor uncertanity, where as a lower numbers usally mean better times.

Heaven knows we sure need some major changes in the country. Every bit of news heard that is showing signs of improvement is greatly rejoiced. At least in my home it is,LOL.
