STOCK MARKET BEARISH -- SHORT

Keybot remains short.  Despite the sour mood today, the SPX:VIX ratio moved above the 68 level a few hours ago and has stayed there all day, signaling that a more extended down move is off the table, for now.  The session has an hour remaining so keep an eye on it. The denominator component of that ratio, volatility, the VIX, fell back below the critical 17.66 level a short time ago which also signals that the bear's bark is worse than the bite today.

Stay on guard, markets remain unstable, but for now, the market bulls have kept a lid on the bearishness today.
