This is a special episode that was recorded as a panel on Navigating Market Volatility on May 21, 2020. I wanted to publish it here on the Mutiny podcast as I think it provides an interesting and insightful look into what we saw in March 2020 and what we can learn from that about how the volatility landscape, and market landscape more generally, is likely to evolve going forward. The panelists discuss the role of the VIX in a portfolio or trading strategy, whether it is too late for long volatility protection and what everyone gets wrong about options.

 

This panelists include Jason Buck a principal at Mutiny alongside Wayne Himelsein of Logica Capital, Bastian Bolesta of Deepfield Capital, and Kevin Davit of the CBOE. The Panel is moderated by Jeff Malec of RCM Alternatives. Wayne, Bastian and Jeff are all previous podcast guests here on the Mutiny podcast and if you enjoy this discussion on the panel, you should check out their episodes.

 

I hope you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did.
