Volatility Divergence Between Individual Stocks and Index! Popular US Stock Trading: Go Long on Stock Options, Hedge with Index Options
With the divergence in the AI narrative, drastic fluctuations in oil prices, and U.S. Treasury yields soaring to a 20-year high, the degree of dispersion among S&P 500 constituents has risen to the 95th percentile in 30 years.
