Gold slammed, taken down to 1367/oz.
VIX fell slightly further today, but is still holding close to the 16 level. VIX closed down -.69% at 15.77. Big volumes yet again today. VIX Futures down slightly, with September VIX down the most by .33 at 16.37. Hedgers still in the building, and will likely remain with the Syrian conflict still unknown.
