Augie's hourly VXN chart indicates a possible turn by early afternoon tomorrow (at least in the VXN): <A HREF="http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=$VXN,uu[g,a]eaclynay[d20021206,20030129][pd20,2][iUp13,8,3!Le13,21,8][J9906174,Y]&pref=G" target="_new">http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=$VXN,uu[g,a]eaclynay[d20021206,20030129][pd20,2][iUp13,8...</A> The VXN full stochs melted from 90 to 30 in 2-sessions. They could turn back up at around 20 tomorrow if the trendlines hold once again. That does not rule out a gap up on the GDP, but it may give us a gap, sideways mush, and crap instead of a gap and run. EOM seasonal stuff is happening here also. Dow usually finishes up the last 2-days of the month.
