May Vix futures 3 months, daily candles
Not much lift/concern here yesterday as we chop around in the broad market
Spot Vix 3months, daily candles Holding above 20, so wider ranges both directions should be expected; So far any attempt to push higher into the 20s hasn't had any staying power. Would probably need to see the broad market testing it's Feb/March lows for any real lift up there. https://www.briefing.com/stock-market-update Futures struggling to gain traction

[BRIEFING.COM] S&P futures vs fair value: +3.70. Nasdaq futures vs fair value: -20.30.
The S&P 500 futures trade four points, or 0.1%, above fair value as investors continue to show a lack of conviction. Buying interest has been restrained by a lackluster response to earnings news, hawkish-sounding Fed commentary, and upwards pressure in long-term interest rates.
Starting with earnings, Dow components Johnson & Johnson (JNJ 176.95, -0.71, -0.4%) and Travelers (TRV 181.75, -3.47, -1.9%) are both trading lower in pre-market action despite beating EPS estimates, but to be fair, JNJ also lowered its FY22 EPS guidance below consensus.
In Fedspeak, St. Louis Fed President Bullard (FOMC voter) said in a speech yesterday that he wants rates to go to 3.5% by end of the year and that the Fed shouldn't rule out the use of 75-basis-point rate increases, according to Bloomberg. As a reminder, the Fed's next policy meeting is in two weeks.
The 10-yr Treasury note yield continues to head toward 3.00%, topping 2.90% overnight. Right now, the benchmark yield is up three basis points to 2.89% while the 2-yr yield trades unchanged at 2.47%. The U.S. Dollar Index is up 0.1% to 100.92. WTI crude futures are down 1.2%, or $1.34, to $106.87/bbl.
On the data front, investors will receive Housing Starts (Briefing.com consensus 1.750 million) at Building Permits (Briefing.com consensus 1.840 million) for March at 8:30 a.m. ET.
