JEF causing futures to dump after the bell

just heard someone say "VIX was signaling a level of complacency..." it was actually the exact opposite! VIX, VX were sitting well above realized vol as the market went up everyday with little movement. if anything, the VIX was saying, "we don't really trust what's happening here"

someone ask his clients if they prefer this to the so called most hated rally ever

the other thing is that banks, private equity, HYG...were already trading really poorly coming into this

so dispersion levels reached liked 99th percentile. and index vol was so low, but VIX/VX couldn’t go down. they were probably sniffing out that this was getting dangerous, and *something* was going to come along and cause a problem

this isn’t volmageddon, and the likelihood it turns into something close is still rare. these setups are rare, but you have to pay attention when they show up. and when mechanics *really* break, AI or whatevs won’t save you
