VIX index and products: the AMF publishes a study on the strong volatility observed on the markets in early February 2018
April 19, 2018--Given the spike in volatility perceived by investors in early February, the AMF is publishing an analysis of the main products concerned and their behaviour during this episode. Broadly speaking, the extent of investment strategies based on volatility calls for a certain vigilance.
Following the publication on February 2 of an economic statistic, triggering fears of a rise in interest rates in the United States, the markets experienced a strong increase in volatility. The S&P 500 index fell 4.2% on February 5. The VIX index, which measures the implied volatility of S&P 500 index options, rose to 50 points in a few days, far from its 10 to 15 points average as observed in the previous months. The index has since returned to lower levels.
