Summary

*first, an update on the VIX, which saw a net weekly gain of 40.1%

--
As for TVIX/UVXY, with powerful net weekly gains of more than 40%, we're only back to the levels of 3/4 weeks ago.

Again, it is a reminder of how statistical decay remains an underlying problem for those who hold long across multiple weeks.. never mind months.

--
*I have ZERO interest in being long the VIX in the near term, not least as equities will likely rally into the next FOMC of Dec 16th.
