Derek Moore and ZEGA Financial CEO Jay Pestrichelli to discuss how despite the correction territory (markets down 10% from top), the VIX index hasn’t shown any real fear. So, what will it take to see capitulation in the markets? Thus far high yield spreads haven’t reflected too much worry. Then Derek is tired of pundits talking about equal weighted market vs the “Magnificent 7” comparison as this is why you buy the index! Later, they discuss the new Fed survey showing how much net worth one needs to get into the top 10% plus median net worth by age range. All this and more plus some recommendations.
