Mini’s Large Move

VIX Fix: The Market’s Record Highs and Lows
Markets continued to push higher this week with the Dow Jones Industrial, Nasdaq-100, and S&P 500 indexes each reaching new record highs. This market euphoria suppressed investor anxiety, driving the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) to a record intraday low of 8.84 on Wednesday, which was just below the previous record low of 8.89 set in 1993. By Friday, the VIX Index crept back up over the 11 level.
