       The market was only down 0.5% today, yet volatility was extremely bid. Relative to the S&P move, this was one of the largest VIX moves historically.Graph shows the VX term structure today compared to yesterday. The main point: notice how significantly the entire curve jumped. This illustrates expected volatility across the entire futures curve has been repriced higher.This is typical of Fridays when uncertainty is high (Israel - Hamas situation).Wild day for volatility traders.

       Also don't conspire about potential shenanigans in that dip some 70 days out (December).Volatility requires the market to be open, and December has fewer trading days than most months. Therefore volatility naturally must be lower given there are fewer days for the market to be... volatile. You see the same effect in July.
