Beat me to it. Was just going to post this. I also show the CBOE put/call index ratio at 0.32! I've never seen it that low. Is there something distorting these data points this morning or have the bulls gone off their rocker here?

Early readings are largely meaningless, or even a fade. Don't ask me why, though. I suspect that there are some large orders early that are triggered by something overnight and there's not enough other activity until later to property contextualize it. Mark

... unless they are marked with the low contract volumes. There are ~2M contracts traded, that's not quite light...

VIX calls are very high today also. I show 5780 puts versus 122,630 calls right now. Haven't dug into the details to see date and strike but I find it interesting.
