[Sideways](. It's not a new release. It came out back in 2004. But I still laugh when I see clips of it. I probably liked this film so much because in part it's about wine and the love of it. It plays out among the vineyards of California's Santa Ynez Valley, after all. But it's also about a man's life - portrayed by the excellent Paul Giamatti - that isn't going particularly well or badly. It's just going kind of... blah. Or as the title suggests, sideways. And this market is about the same. If you're like me, you watch stock indexes every day. And this year they have provided thrills on a weekly and even daily basis. If you look at a chart of the Chicago Board Options Exchange's Volatility Index (also known as the VIX), you can see that clearly. [Living in Volatile Times]( [The average volatility]( this year has been around 26. That's much higher than 2021's average (19.7) but not as high as 2020's, which spiked above 29 due to the COVID-19 recession and market drop. But in the eight years that preceded the pandemic (2012 through 2019), [volatility averaged only about 15](. So in comparison to the pre-pandemic years, [these are indeed volatile times](.

One millionaire, who bought Ethereum at $0.06 (up 2,000,000% now), believes XRI is "an incredible opportunity for all of us." Another, who bought Tesla in 2006, says XRI "will become a larger and larger part of our economy." One billionaire's firm is investing $600 million in XRI technology. You simply can't afford to ignore these pioneer tech investors.
