Note from dshort: I emailed my friend Chris Kimble a link to a Business Insider item with the dramatic title Investors Are Staging One Of The Biggest Moves Into Equities Of All Time. Chris responded by sending me the two charts. The first gives us a historical context for big inflows.

 

 

The second shows an interesting perspective on the correlation between the VIX and the S&P 500 when the VIX is at current levels.

 

 

To paraphrase one of Chris's trademark quips: "Will this time be different?"
