What explains the sudden turmoil?

何以解释这场突如其来的动荡呢?
Perhaps investors had been used to good news for so long that they had become complacent.

In a recent survey investors reported their highest exposure to equities in two years and their lowest holdings of cash in five.
在一份最新的调查中,投资者爆出他们两年来在股票上的最高风险敞口和5年来在现金上的最低持有。
Another sign of potential complacency was the unwillingness of investors to pay for insurance against a market decline, something that showed up in the volatilitv or Vix index.
潜在的自满情绪的另一个迹象是投资者对于购买市场下跌保险,即Vix波动指数所展现出来的某种东西的不情愿。
