VIX

Stocks rose on Wednesday as investors looked to build on Tuesday's trading session that snapped a 3-day losing streak.

US stocks rose early Wednesday as investors looked to build on Tuesday's rebound that snapped a three-day losing streak for the major averages. The benchmark S&P 500 rose nearly 1.3% while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite was up almost 2%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose about 0.5%, or nearly 200 points. Global markets continued to recover after a 12% drop in Japan's Nikkei on Monday sent shockwaves worldwide. The Nikkei rose 2.5% overnight on Wednesday.

Ahead of last week's sell-off, the VIX had been trading in the teens, though had been on a steady climb for much of July.
