Unusual VIX Call Surge at High Strikes
Shortly after 10:15 a.m. ET, there was an explosion of trading activity in far out-of-the-money options tied to the Cboe Volatility Index (commonly known as the VIX), which tracks the 30-day implied volatility of the S&P 500 based on options prices. The volumes were centered in VIX call options that expire in May, for the 55, 65, and 75 strikes. The VIX, also known as Wall Street’s “fear gauge,” has rarely eclipsed these levels.
