最新报道:Markets signal calm as volatility plunges to multi-year lows, with the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) dropping below 12 for the first time since 2019. Analysts note the unusual divergence between low volatility readings and elevated macroeconomic risks including Fed rate uncertainty and geopolitical tensions. While some investors view this as complacency, others argue structural factors like algorithmic trading and passive investing are suppressing volatility. "This isn't 2017 - we have real reasons for concern despite the quiet markets," warns JPMorgan's Marko Kolanovic, suggesting investors maintain hedges. The debate continues on whether current volatility levels properly reflect underlying risks in equities and crypto markets.
