The "Big Three" indexes – the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and the Nasdaq, with their unprecedented strength – are the ones everyone's watching right now.
There's one important index, however, that's continually scraping record lows. The Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index – the VIX. The VIX measures volatility in short-term S&P 500 options, but most investors think of it as a powerful broad-market "fear index."
It seems the market has no "fear" right now. So FOX Business' Gerri Wilder turned to the guy that helped develop the VIX, Shah, to see whether the record lows there are cause for concern.
Shah told us what's really happening and, best of all, how to make a little extra money on this unusual situation…
The markets are on fire, but not every stock is going up. In fact, Shah's Zenith Trading Circle readers are getting the chance to make a killing across entire sectors as they go belly-up. These recommendations averaged 42% per day in June (including partial closeouts), with a 995% win when one of America's favorite stores took a body blow. There are lots more juicy potential targets on Shah' list… that could possibly help you be $53,000 richer every month. Click here to check out his research.

HI,
Mr. Gilani, what do you think of the merger between Microsoft and Kind Financial on the Azure .gov platform? Mr. M. Robinson views that as a really strong indicator for a potential "double"/ game changer for Microsoft… yet again… (after the "one" you predicted.) That is of course factoring in Mr. S. Nadella.
