    It would be smart to buy high priced tomatoes if you were pretty sure they would be much more expensive in the coming months.

    VIX is very low? It is still in the upper 30s- an historically very HIGH number that indicates that significant fear remains in the market. When the bank stocks begin to tank again in the coming months, it should climb back up in the 40s or 50s.

    Again, historically any number over 30 for the VIX is considered very high, not low.
