VIX Fix: Which Way to Go?

New week, new high for the Dow. A well-received speech from the President on Tuesday, sent the Dow Jones Index soaring past the 21,000 mark, another new all-time high. Meanwhile, in a speech to the Executives’ Club of Chicago on Friday, Federal Reserve Bank Chair Janet Yellen intimated that a rate hike may be on the table as soon as March, giving stocks a mixed end to the week. After a brief mid-week spike, the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) closed the week in the 11 range once again.
