That's a big flashing warning in my estimation. This Tweet captures the moment.

$SPX is now positive but the $VIX is +1.40. This is typically a big flashing yellow light. Be very, very cautious today.https://t.co/maIeV4zEiu https://t.co/u7RwuFv1hV

Bears should root for the gap down to close tomorrow then collapse as soon as it does.

"Hells bells, green tomorrow would not surprise me much. But I do not think would hold long. For the week, red"

"Bears should root for the gap down to close tomorrow then collapse as soon as it does."

And here we are. The day is not over but this does not look pretty, no matter what the close.
