What Quarter-end May Mean for Investors (9/28/23)

(9/27/23) Volatility in the markets has been very suppressed of late, but that's changing. Weaker prices and the onset of the quarter's end has caused volatility to tick upward. An increase in the Volatility Index has coincided with the recent market sell-off. When the VIX becomes very over bought, it tends to correspond with the peak of the VIX, and the bottom in the stock markets. We are approaching this point, which also typically coincides with a reversal in the index itself. This is typical of quarter-end rebalancing, and about 25% of all fund managers also have their fiscal year-end at the end of September. Interestingly, 30% of fund managers' fiscal year end occurs in December, so expect a similar sell-off in the first couple of weeks of December.
