VIX Trading Nears November Highs as Fear Grips Stock Markets

VIX Trading Nears November Highs as Fear Grips Stock Markets

The Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) rose to 37 on Wednesday, the biggest one-day move since the market crash in March. According to Bloomberg, VIX’s futures curve flipped to “backwardation,” implying that investors expect more volatility in the near-term.

Cboe Volatility Index (VIX)
  • The bulk of VIX’S Wednesday gain came in after-hours trading when Tesla Inc., Apple Inc., and Facebook Inc. all fell after reporting results.
  • VIX, which measures the 30-day implied volatility of the S&P 500, rose as the Index suffered the biggest declines on Wednesday since October as retail trading frenzy and fears over economic recovery sparked a wave of selling
  • Before S&P 500 selloffs, the implied volatility was still above its decade average amid concerns of vaccine rollouts and technical forces such as increasing buying of call options.
  • Analysts also associate the VIX rise with the imbalance between supply and demand.

Volatility Index is currently declining. VIX is down 25.58%
