Some dude posted this chart on twitter - all the pull backs since 2009
^VIX shot up to 28 ...the Fear Factor kicking in
Implies that the S&P will go up or down 8% in the next 30 days.
Sure does look ominous. The Monthly log chart gives perspective, bull and bear markets take years to unfold. The 38.2% fib retrace is uncannily sitting right on the double tops (now support) of the past 15 years. I certainly don't share any of the short term optimism for equities as others amongst us, in fact some have been preparing for this for a while, and now it's happening or certainly appears to be.

Read somewhere that the Taylor Rule said the Fed should have started raising rates in 2011. Implication by not doing so is pain ahead that could have been avoided

With Q2 earnings largely in the books (over 97% of S&P 500 firms have reported), today's chart provides some long-term perspective on the current earnings environment by focusing on 12-month, as reported S&P 500 earnings. Today's chart illustrates the dramatic nature of the earnings plunge during the financial crisis as well as the recovery that followed -- a recovery that took earnings from levels not seen since the Great Depression to a new record high. Over the past two quarters, however, S&P 500 inflation-adjusted earnings have declined by a significant 12% from their record highs -- a significant concern going forward.

I don’t think Fed will raise interest rate in this September. Most probably they will have a systemic and gradual approach to it from 2016 onwards. USD could become number one bullish currency in 2017/18. I believe after this sell off and volalliilty S & P500 could climb back breaking its all time high towards end of this year.
