"The consensus for earnings in 2011 rose to $99.52.... Put a multiple anywhere between a reasonable range of 13-15, and the result is that the S&P 500 will be somewhere between 1300 and 1500 by the end of the year." The selling effort has sent the Volatility Index up 25% to a new 52-week high. Options are likely playing a part in the spike since tomorrow is an options-expiration session.
