VIX Fix: Three Down… Which Way to Go?

As President Trump continued to deliver on campaign promises this week, investor confidence in the markets remained high and the “Trump Rally” continued on. The Dow Jones Index saw eleven consecutive sessions of all-new records highs, closing at 20,821.76 on Friday. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) fell on Friday, after back-to-back gains this week, down to levels in the 11-range. So, as the country awaits what the new President has to say in his first-ever address to Congress on Tuesday, low to no vol seems to be the new normal.
