I Am Shorting Volatility and Getting Long the Greatest Financial Product Ever Invented

I stepped in and bought XIV a little bit below these levels this morning, as reported in Exodus. So you know, I am buying this for my great, great, grandchildren. They will certainly appreciate today’s purchase when my estate is divvied up and they spend my money recklessly on stupid shit.

    Nice. I’d like to participate but I’m off to the hairchopper, then the dentist. I’ll have to check it out later. Also looking to buy back the TQQQ I sold cheaper.

    At some point in the next two generations VIX will jump 200% in one day and XIV will go to zero.

    Consistent monthly bear put spreads on UVXY are where it’s at.

    Buy XIV outright after the entire VIX curve inverts…which will probably happen every 3-5 years.

      Also, just a straight martingale strategy in long dated UVXY puts works well if things get really out of hand.

    Globally, those who have sold now have money to invest. But where? I’m bullish US dollar & equities. Ex medical sector maybe.

    Always gets so quiet in the comment sections after a 300+ point drop.

    Yellen…forgot to make coffee and turn on the QE machine this morning. FED will fall apart without her.

    Re: Crypto-selloff. The Tether scam is about to be exposed now that the CFTC is involved. I’d watch out below if I held cryptos. The potential Tether scam had no small role in the rise of Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto-complex.

    Daily chart sure looks like a broken uptrend without an EOD rally. Very ugly indeed. Will make for a “sad” backdrop for Dear Leader tonight.
