The Changing Face of Volatility

There was a lot of discussion about the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) and the current volatility environment – or lack thereof – at this week’s Sandler O’Neill Global Exchange and Broker Conference in New York.

With the VIX Index “not closing above 13.75 for the past year, many in the industry are left scratching their heads wondering whether low volatility is the new reality for the U.S. equities market,” reports Rob Daly of Markets Media.

“Whenever something is the new norm, I know it is about to change,” Chris Concannon, CBOE Holdings President and COO, told attendees at the Sandler O’Neill event. He added, “I continue to hear that theme that this low level of volatility is the new norm. It’s not, and it’s going to change.”
