SVIX makes a 10 day high

[fstp, logo, header] August 19, 2024 [ag views, logo, header] SVIX makes a 10 day high This is a big week for VIX and volatility as traders focus on the FOMC Meeting Wednesday, Jackson Hole Symposium hosted by the KC Fed and the outlier event the DNC in Chicago. I don’t expect much in the way of dominoes to fall in VIX land but SVIX is doing its thing and climbed out to a .68 gain on a light VIX move. The only thing holding VIX up right now is the fact we have all these headline events. [ded]( The FOMC and Jackson Hole have produced 100 point SPX moves in the last year. We have 2 in the same week. Hold on to your hats as SPX is only 2% away from all time highs. Yes you got that right, 2% from All Time Highs. SVIX is likely to plod higher. Join us in the [Trading Desk](and see how to trade it where we are looking for double! - AG  [logo, pit profits] Want to find YOUR winning fit?

Hell No! Hey Income Hunters, The U.S. Budget Crisis: What It Means for Our Future The U.S. government is facing a big problem: it's spending way more money than it’s bringing in, leading to a huge budget deficit … Imagine if your family kept buying things on a credit card but didn’t have enough income to pay the bills. Eventually, that debt would grow so large that it would be impossible to manage. Well, the US deficit in July, reported last week, was the second largest EVER! [FPRI] What really makes the budget deficit report so threatening is that in 2021 when it reached the highest level in history, the unemployment rate was 5.4% … Can you imagine the impact on investment flows when unemployment hits 5.4% in the current economic cycle? It is certainly not a pretty picture and will trigger some critical policy decisions and incredible market moves … [Click through for a peak at the likely path ahead and the impact on markets …]( - Bill --------------------------------------------------------------- Never miss an edition of Bill Griffo's Power Income Newsletter ever again. [Click this link to sign up!](  --------------------------------------------------------------- Don't miss when our traders go live!
