July Vix futures 3 months, daily candles
Still extremely muted action off "oversold" levels, as the broad market pulls back. If this doesn't get going in short order, it seems to be implying this broad market cool off from overbought levels will remain healthy.
Spot Vix 3 months, daily candles
Trying to peek over yesterdays highs today, after falling to further new multi-year lows yesterday; in the face of the broad market cooling off from overbought levels. No fear here.

Market participants remain in consolidation mode, driving stock futures lower. Mega caps are a notable pocket of weakness this morning, reflecting a continued inclination to sell into strength after their big run of late. Also, Fed Chair Powell will continue his semiannual monetary policy testimony before the Senate Banking Committee at 10:00 a.m. ET.
Several central banks announced policy rate increases, which has acted as a reminder that global inflation remains too high and that the lag effects of rate hikes may adversely impact global economic prospects. That understanding has contributed to the weakness this morning.
The Bank of England surprised with a 50 basis points increase in its bank rate to 5.00%; the Swiss National Bank raised its policy rate by 25 bps to 1.75%, as expected; and the Norges Bank announced a 50-bps increase to 3.75% against expectations for a smaller increase.
