Market Bounce Amid Trade Tensions: Elevated VIX, MU's China Move, Gold Shines

Stocks are trying to bounce back from a rough start to the week, but trade tensions and credit quality concerns still loom. The VIX sits at 24%, implying a 1.5% move to the upside or downside. Kevin Green discusses the potential for a de-risking trade into safe-havens like cash and treasuries, and sees gold as a telltale sign of market sentiment. He also weighs in on the regional bank sell-off, saying not all banks are created equal, and notes that Micron's (MU) decision to stop supplying server chips to China is not a huge surprise.
