VIX Dumps To 13.00 As Stocks Catch Down To Risk
UPDATE: VIX and SPX have recoupled
Given the compression in realized volatility and surge in stocks, it is not totally surprising that spot VIX would see some catch down compression. Sure enough, spot VIX just plunged to 13.00 (for the first time in almost 6 years). Stocks are falling as VIX is falling though - in a convergence from yesterday's gap-open. Longer-date VIX futures are also falling but not as much - implying further debt-ceiling deadline steepeners being laid out.
VIX vs SPX...
Implied vol has tracked realized vol almost prefectly (lower pane) for the last few weeks...

VIX the graveyard for falling machette catchers.
Couldn't agree with you more on that statement.
That rubber band will eventually break if you keep pulling on it like that.
CD,
lol!

Come on Ben push it down to 10...I dare you.
There's almost nothing left to trade.
It's either extremely low volatility or extremely high volatility.
No other option.

Straight up slaughterhouse for people just getting into the market thinking 'gee, I should "invest" my money in the stock market.' Some people simply don't understand that markets are no mo. Whatever 'credibility' there was left in trading disappeared with the algos.
On that note... HOW THE HELL IS FB $30!? WTF!
In the year 2019 ~ FB will still be trading at $30 [by Nexus 6 replicants who do slave labor in the out colonies]... But a few will jump their programming and come back to Earth searching for Tyrell Zuckerberg so they can gouge his eyes out...
Most pathetic exit strategy ever. We're gonna see the .com 2.0 bust pretty soon here. Nothing to 'innovate' on after this though. Both hardware and software have been stalling for a while now. The exponential thing is flattening out.
LOL! We can hope. I know a guy who is 50ish who is on there. There are loads of women that are late 30s to early 50s all trying to be celebs and reality "stars." It is incredibly weird and disturbing. I think they are replicants.

To be expected. We are in, say it with me now, an ECONOMIC RECOVERT! EVERY metric of economic measurement is showing RECOVERY not collapse. I don't understand the overall bearishness and hatred towards economic policy makers on this website.
I tried, I really did. But I keep chortling every time I say Economic Rec.. There I go again.

I’ll believe in a recovery when I see the labor participation rate start to improve.

Per Armstrong:
The next three weeks will be choppy with the primary targets being the weeks of 01/28, 02/11, and 03/11. We have Weekly Bullish Reversals at 1365810 and 1369790. These define the overhead resistance. The Weekly Bearish start at 1309150. Our Minor Month Bullish Reversal stands at 1333180 while the Majors are 1399470, 1412110, and 1428000 just above the 2007 high. The Yearly Bullish Reversal still stands at 1333825. This was not elected at the close of 2012 and remains initial resistance during 2013. Major support for 2013 lies at 1102500-1060500 with initial yearly support at 1165500.
The Daily Bearish Reversals at 1330955, 1329335, 1312900, and 1309480. The key days ahead will be 01/23 with high volatility starting 01/24.
tvix is going to get another 10-1 split in a few weeks at this rate
wait,what a plunge! 2 ES points or 0,1%?
does Durden look at ACTUAL charts and not VIX, HYIG or his "context charts"? The uptrend continues.Buy the the dip:)
Yo Tyler,whens Tha plunge?
March
of which year ? this doom and gloomn site suggested the uptrend is over at about ES 1200.Now close to 1500.
"They" may run this mkt months and years while sheep short.
It may be near-suicide to fight the Fed with their infinite printing machine, but it can hardly be called sheep-like. It is afterall fighting the power, is it not?
Herd following sheep behavior is more the opposite, the cheerleaders lining up behing the kleptocrats even as the real economy dies.
Doom gloom choom.
I like the Tyler(s) but their markket calls are starting to look like Whitney Tilson.
Total VXX surpression!!! How I do not know, but it is like the FEDNY kiteing this market.
UPDATE UPDATE -
VIX in freefall at 12.50 = nothing to worry about forever and ever
UPDATER -
VIX still collapsing at 12.45...do I hear 12?
The ticker that keeps on giving, TVIX from $10,000 to $5.50 in under 3 years
Are you all watching this...amazing...what the eff is going on given the world today? Talk about death of the stock market which in itself is amazing given that Ben has basically gone all in trying to push savers out of bonds and savings accounts into the market...shocking
