Fiscal Crap, Volatility returns, and maybe faith in Large Caps.

The last full week trading in 2012 was vexed by 'Fiscal Cliff' sorrows. Its taking away everything from our equities. Perhaps there is a light at the end of the tunnel with large cap stocks, four in particular. Mastery turns to Anheuser Busch (BUD), Walt Disney Co. (DIS), The Coca-Cola Co. (KO) and McDonald's Corp. (MCD).

Stocks have been falling since last Friday, there's only one person who can help.

If only we could hire Richard Harrow (from HBO's Boardwalk Empire) to execute the idiots responsible for plunging our stocks since last week. In the past four trading sessions the Down Jones has erased 225 points. The S&P has fallen 2.23% since last Friday and its all thanks to negative EU headlines. Volatility has made a triumphant return.

Volatility has taken a break, so should you. Go enjoy your favorite snake.

The VIXY, VIX is taking a break and along with it the iPath S&P 500 VIX ST Futures ETN (VXX) continues to sink to new lows daily. The question becomes will the VIX and VXX bounce back? Should we be afraid or just ignore the warning and buy up everything?
