Definition of the VIX (Volatility Index): The VIX is an indicator of the stock market's expected movement (up or down) over the next 30 days.

The general media sometimes refers to the VIX as the fear index because lately the markets have focused on the down side risk of another market crash rather than the up side hope of a strong bull market recovery.
