Episode Synopsis

Volatility Views 107: Another Day, Another Selloff
Volatility Review: Another day, another selloff. VIX cash pops one handle to nearly 17. VIX call/put hovering around 2.6 - high but not at all-time highs. VIX cash trading at a premium to near-term futures. Does the VIX "fully" reflect the markets fear? CBOE launches a new Vol product - Short-term Volatility Index (VXST). Emerging market Vol preview.
 
Volatility Viewpoint: What was Russell’s take on RMC this year?
 
Volatility Voicemail: International VIX?
Question from Vegaman - Great podcast. Love the recent rundown of RMC since I’m never able to attend the show. My question - do you know if any international versions of the VIX are in the offing? You’ve discussed the India VIX on previous shows but that seems to be the only non-U.S. version that gets mentioned. Thanks to the folks at Russell for making this great show possible. Oh - and I’m streaming the show while submitting this question from the mobile app. Very cool.
