  • VIX Futures Curve - STILL IN CONTANGO.

    FROM MATT THOMPSON:

    • Spot $VIX "gravity" on VIX futures does not get stronger when the curve is steep. In fact, the opposite.
    • Why? Because steep curve = a lot of time to expiration. and "gravity" has the greatest effect when a future is close to expiration
  • And much more...
