please can you provide an actual source for this--thanks.
ie where did you see anything about a 28% stock market decline in the article? he's forecasting a vix move up to 28%. he has 28 years experience. he sees the s+p coming down 26 points to its 200 day moving average. but thats about it folks so far as numbers close to 28 are concerned!
