This makes me worry. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...-shorting-the-vix-at-a-rate-never-seen-before
I wouldn't read too much into it... like I said, reading the professionals moves will be too confusing... some of them actually know what they are doing, some are just as clueless as the amateurs. I'd just read what the amateurs are doing, that's a group of pure dumb money.
The only thing stopping me from buying vxxb is summer. I don't know if I am dumb money, but I am definitely not smart money
dumb money is currently at 1:3 long:short.. and it's in sync with some other stock boards I visit... amateurs all think alike. and with all due respect if you are thinking about long vola, then you are a dumb money suspect lol
Are the Strategists billionaires? And even if they were, I would not listen to them as they might give wrong responses to get out of their positions.
It doesn't bother me as I treat all news as inaccurate, slow, misleading, distracting. Also I always assume writers are not traders. so we are not the target audience.
