(5/16/17)
After last Wednesday's 1.8% drop, the S&P 500 has rallied
the past 4 days as the VIX has tumbled once again without testing the upper
portion of its descending channel. Finally
the market is certainly out of touch with reality. The chart from
zerohedge shows the US Macro Surprise Index is collapsing as the S&P 500
remains near all time highs. Notice the Macro Surprise Index and S&P
500 generally move in the same direction but have diverged considerably the past
few months. The last time the Macro Surprise Index was this low the
S&P 500 was near the 2050 level (point A).
