The Volatility Index (VIX) has fallen to its lowest level in two years, indicating a lack of fear in the stock market. This is due to the expiration of $3.4 trillion worth of options, the largest September option expiration ever. Investors are aggressively buying shares of Arm Holdings (ARM) due to the belief that it is an AI company on par with NVIDIA (NVDA). However, this is not the case as ARM is not an AI company. Positive money flows are seen in Apple (AAPL), Tesla (TSLA), and Meta Platforms (META), while negative flows are seen in Amazon (AMZN), NVIDIA, Alphabet (GOOG), and Microsoft (MSFT). Mixed money flows are seen in SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 (QQQ).
