One of my weakest points is following the news. Example: IV on spy for Monday's options is 12.7% (low because of the weekend discount, I know.) IV for Tuesday is 23%. Obviously, there is some upcoming event, likely the Fed. But the fed calendar ( https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/calendar.htm ) doesn't show anything as a trigger for mon a/n - Tues. Is there a list of (Fed especially) announcements / meetings that one can get, especially one that includes analysis of IV / HV impact? (I'd pay a small monthly fee for that, if it exists.) What events have the biggest effect on IV? Interest rate announcements for now, I think. Anyway, any insight Fedpros and Newspros can offer is appreciated.
I saw that, but I wouldn't think CPI would move the needle THAT much. Funds rate seems a LOT more pertinent. I guess so though!
the fed is literally raising rates to make CPI lower. You would think the CPI measurement would be important.
