Volatility Strikes the Markets

July 24, 2024 | [Read Online]( [fb]( [fb]( [fb]( [fb](mailto:?subject=Post%20from%20Don%27s%20Trading%20Desk&body=Volatility%20Strikes%20the%20Markets%3A%20%0A%0Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fdon-kaufman.beehiiv.com%2Fp%2Fvolatility-strikes-markets) [In my latest TheoTrade video](, I dive deep into the volatility gripping the markets right now. What a day… The S&P 500 staggered 120 handles, and the Nasdaq took an even harder decline, dropping more than 3.5%. It was the worst single day sell-off since December of 2022.  The SPX has made a round-trip this week, hitting the top and bottom range of its auto expected move, and it’s only Wednesday! But this isn't your run-of-the-mill sell-off – there's a lot more going on beneath the surface. I break down the key drivers behind this volatility surge, from the anticipated moves in the SPX to the concerning behavior in the VIX futures markets. The inversion in the VIX term structure is a critical development that signals deeper risks ahead. As I warn, we're not out of the woods yet, and the potential for a feedback loop between spiking volatility and S&P 500 selling is very real. Importantly, I caution against labeling this as mere "capitulation" – the lack of broad-based correlation in the selling is a red flag that this could get even more extreme if things start to align. In times like these, it's crucial to have an experienced, level-headed voice to help you navigate the chaos. If you want to hear my full analysis and understand where the markets may be headed next, I encourage you to watch the video. I dive into: - the technical details, - geopolitical factors, and - potential scenarios that all traders need to be aware of. [This is a must-watch for anyone looking to stay ahead of the curve in these turbulent times.]( 🚀 A.I.
