Volatility Voicemail: Listener questions and comments Question from Victor C - Do you think the failure of VXST has to do with the product being too much vol of vol for most people? Is it just too wild of a product for the mostly institutional VIX crowd? Question from Señor Pablo - Thanks for the show Mark, and please say Hi to Jared and Andrew for me. You guys have mentioned some of the VIX competitors in the past. It looks like we will probably get at least one of them, if not both this year. Which one, if any, do you think has the best chance in the marketplace? Question from AltasSmirked - What is a reasonable skew level for the SPX? At what level should I be looking to buy puts?
