Stocks Continued To Melt On March 23 With No End In Sight

Stocks continue to melt, even after the Fed just launched QE infinity. The S&P 500 fell another 3.0% and is trading around 2,235.

S&P 500 (SPX)

Stocks continue to melt, even after the Fed just launched QE infinity. The S&P 500 fell another 3.0% and is trading around 2,235. It managed to find some support around 2,190 to the start of the day, but that’s about the only positive thing I can point to.

The strangest thing I have seen recently is this dual pattern forming in the S&P 500. The trading channel is a force and one that appears to be very strong. But on top of that, there appears to be another pattern forming within that channel.

It appears that a falling wedge pattern is forming, and that may mean that the index is rising to the upper end of the range of the trading channel around perhaps back to around 2,270. What’s even crazier is it would only take us back to where we were to start the day.

VIX 

The VIX managed to come down some today, falling to around 65. That is still too high and doesn’t suggest things are getting any better.
