With so many crazy things going on, investor complacency mystifies me.

If you measure worry by how much the VIX is above actual volatility we're seeing tons of worry.

The VIX is at 10.0.

The actual volatility over the last ten days is 2.75.

That's a huge discrepancy. It's very very rare that options are so expensive with so little volatility.
