This Sunday I showed you the SKEW Index which is brought to you by the CBOE (same place the VIX comes from). The SKEW is a rather new tool for the CBOE and is meant to reflect the probability of a "Black Swan" event.
The SKEW runs between around 100 (probability of a market crash very small) to 150 with an average of 115. I noticed the rate of change of the SKEW had increased in the post linked above and thus it was worth a post as a possible warning.
Here's what the SKEW looked like Sunday
And here is what it looks like today (1-day change), note that it has increased significantly in one day, near multi-month highs. This is one indicator you may want to keep an eye on, especially with 3C long term charts looking the way they do.
Is interest rates about to start going up?

Yes, I know - it does not make any sense - FED is about to cut
rates...but....real world interest rates are not always what FED wants it
to be.
