Connection thesis
Elevated VIX (27.44) is consistent with and reinforced by the reported tech selloff and Dow correction. Middle East tensions and Meta legal issues are compounding risk-off sentiment, pushing volatility above the typical 'calm market' threshold of ~20. These signals are mutually reinforcing: headlines drive VIX, and elevated VIX amplifies headline sensitivity.
