Summary
*first, an update on the VIX,
--
As for TVIX and UVXY, the series of weekly gains has concluded, as VIX has already been cut in half from the high of Aug' 24th.
As ever... such leveraged instruments are for short term holds only... not least due to the decay. Indeed, with the VIX itself still relatively volatile, the rate of statistical decay is much higher than normal.
--
Best guess.. sp' maxes out in the 2000/2070 zone, with VIX flooring in the 17/15 zone.
From there, I am seeking renewed equity weakness... back into the sp'1800s... which should equate to VIX (at least briefly) in the 40s.
