Five positive day in a row, maybe a start of another upward trend? Hopefully not in my case with my short positions. The market is starting to get very optimistic, because the vix is very low near the 11 mark. And that is where it was before the market turned ugly in early May. Well not a great week for me, but the market sure had a field week. Next week will bring the durable goods and a bunch of housing number which should test the markets strength. The only bright side today is that adsk came back to finish almost par after yesterday's option backdating mess. Well onto next week.
