Description:

It's a spooky Friday the 13th on the Options Insider Radio Network! This week, the panel gathers to dissect a market that is being haunted by more than just superstitions. From explosive moves in energy to a bond market that is sending shockwaves through the 60/40 portfolio, the "murderers' row" of vol experts covers it all.

On the Docket:

  • The Energy "Memification": Mark Sebastian breaks down the "algo madness" in Crude Oil and why the move to $120 was a mechanical outlier.

  • The Bond Market Cracks: Dr. Russell Rhoads and Jim Carroll discuss why "9 Vol" in the 10-year Treasury is the equivalent of a 40 VIX and what it means for interest rate expectations.

  • VIX as a Passenger: Why the VIX is "yawning" at 27 despite the red across the screens.

  • The Weekly Rundown: Dr. Rhoads reviews a litany of "crappy trades" and highlights a massive 20,000-lot mystery trade in the VIX weeklies.

  • Crystal Ball: Will next week bring a "Jalapeño" spike or a "Vanilla" retreat? The team places their bets on the next VIX settlement.

Featuring:

  • Host: Mark Longo, The Options Insider

  • The Greasy Meatball: Mark Sebastian, Option Pit

  • The Professor Dr. VIX: Dr. Russell Rhoads, IU Adjunct Professor

  • The Vixologist: Jim Carroll, Ballast Rock Private Wealth
