Consumer data in calendar's spotlight

Today's calendar will give investors a bit of a reprieve from this week's heavy economic data. The consumer price index and consumer sentiment are the only reports scheduled for release.

New York Fed President William Dudley will kick off the day with remarks at 8 a.m. ET.

The consumer price index for March comes out at 8:30 a.m. ET. The consensus forecast calls for a reading of 0.3 percent, down slightly from the last monthly report of 0.4 percent. Estimates range from 0.1 percent to 0.5 percent.

Excluding food and energy, the index is expected to come in at 0.2 percent, compared with the last reading of 0.1 percent. The range of estimates without food and energy is 0.1 percent to 0.2 percent.

Consumer sentiment for April will be released at 9:55 a.m. ET. Most analysts are expecting the sentiment level to remain unchanged at 76.2. Estimates range from 74.0 to 78.6.

Capping the day's events will be an appearance by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, who will speak at 1 p.m. ET.

VIX futures fall as index drops sharply

The CBOE Volatility Index finished the day down 14 percent.

The VIX dropped 2.82 points close at 17.20 as the S&P 500 picked up 18.86 points, or 1.37 percent, to settle at 1387.57. The two indexes usually move inversely.

The VIX futures followed the spot volatility index lower. The April futures, which only have three days left to trade, were down 12 percent to 18.20. May futures fell 10 percent to 20.10.

Some of the drag on the VIX can be chalked up to the actual volatility in the SPX remaining low. It is about 12 percent despite a five-day losing streak that ended Tuesday.

The VIX options had another strong day, trading more than 567,000 contracts. Calls barely outpaced puts.

The iPath S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Future ETN (VXX) saw 181,000 options change hands, 94,000 of them puts. It appears that traders are using the puts to take advantage of the drop in the VIX.

Futures hanging onto support by a hair

[Clinton SPX]

[Clinton SPX]

[Clinton SPX]

OK this feels like the low pivot now

[theMIST]

1377-78 on S&P goes and TVIX will fly more

but it is a stretch for today IMO -- testing support now -- well see

If that breaks, retest of 50dsma (1375ish) -- imo

[Clinton SPX]

off to work
BBL
GL traders

[theMIST]

TVIX is flying -- glad I bought this morning and joined Huh?

[theMIST]

sold TVIX -- if 50dsma breaks I'll buy back in but I think it holds for now but could be wrong

S&P cutting through supports like butter so far

[exabi]

Europe hurling into the close.....if it keeps up for another hour, will be dry heaving.

[theMIST]

Spain got hammered -- I think we fall further

bought back TVIX -- smaller position

[natsalilfly]

Yeah, abandoned my longs again. I think the shorts may get an edge here, even if we have a bounce back early in the week. Espana has always been the elefante en la habitación I may just be coming over to the dark side, if that happens.

Look at Europe! They may be way down because they know something bad is coming out this weekend. I can't imagine recovering too much today!
