Why the VIX at 19 and VVIX at 105 Are a Dangerous Combo

The VIX is at 18.77 and VVIX at 104.87—a volatile cocktail that's been flashing warnings all year. Lucas and Luna break down what happens when the 'fear index' stays elevated while the 'volatility of volatility' spikes even higher. They look at historical parallels like 2018's Q4 sell-off and explain why this regime is different from 2020's crash. Plus, they examine how the yield curve steepening adds pressure, especially for small-cap stocks in the Russell 2000. A practical guide for investors navigating choppy markets without panic-selling. #VIX #VVIX #Volatility #FearIndex #VolatilityOfVolatility #YieldCurve #Russell2000 #SmallCaps #MarketTurbulence #SellOff #Stocks #Investing #RiskManagement #PortfolioStrategy #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #BearMarketPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
