We showed this chart recently, now updated to today's close. The chart above is the weekly National Association of Active Investment Managers (NAAIM). The NAAIM Exposure Index represents the average exposure to US Equity markets reported by its members' current exposure index sets at 44.21% -- meaning the NAAIM have 44.21% of their assets in the market, which is pretty low. In the past, that has been a bullish level. We also look at the Bollinger Bands on the NAAIM and, when this index falls and hits its lower Bollinger Band, the market has been near a low. The bottom window is the Percent Bollinger Band; when "0" is reached, that means the lower Bollinger Band is touched (which was hit recently). Long SPX on 5/19/21 at 4115.68.

Not so far. When VIX and SP500 do turn to an abnormal positive correlation, it can be a pretty good topping indication. But that's not happening now.

@jessefelder

first came up with this observation about 10-day VIX correlation, as far as I know.

The VIX seems to have gone uncorrelated with the market indices. Not sure if that is true or what it means, but it caught my eye.

#Gold rose 7.5% in May, closing above $1,900. Meanwhile #Bitcoin had its worst month since 2011. It couldn't sustain $40K with $42K acting as powerful resistance. $30K support is back in play, and if it fails $20K is the next target. Memorial Day may have added meaning in crypto.

Sharp  VXX reversal late on Friday cash session was main reason for ending the day green

Interesting historical study. Looks like $VIX often comes back from a holiday refreshed, relaxed and not a bit hungover. Which is good since it's back to being a teenager this week.

Volatility event ahead? There have been 11 other times when the #VIX closed at a 52-week low ahead of an exchange holiday. It jumped an average of 25% at some point during the next month when traders (and volume) returned.

Last day of the month, up early to watch the French Open, might as well throw in a trade so trying a buy at 4199.  See how that goes....
