In the last 23 years, the VIX has never gone below 8.84.
8.84 was around July 26, 2017.
That's Y that trader placed that bet.
What were the historical odds the VIX would go lower? Not much.
* LOW *
8.84 - July 26, 2017

"Not only are short volatility bets at their peak...
The number of VIX futures contracts outstanding has never been higher... "

Young peeps who were in HS in 2000 & 2008 will get suckered in again.
Young couples will continue to "hold" and get wiped out.
"Oh honey, it will go back up" ....
NO, it won't.
It's FINISHED.
9 years of Obama's bad Fed fiscal policy going down the tubes.
