Market Internals

The Week Ahead
Yield from the 10-year Treasury note touched 3% which spooked investors. Market internals are weakening. Vix and Vix futures are above 18 and 17 respectively but not extremely high. Skew is normal. The Vix and Vix futures readings are telling that investors had done some hedging to the downside. As such the decline may not be quick. The prognosis is for declines in the indices but at a slow and steady rate.
