I am joined today by Benn Eifert, founder of QVR Advisors. QVR specializes in managing option-based strategies and Benn describes what he does as volatility investing.
We quickly wade into the deep end with this one. Benn schools me on relative value investing and dismisses my favored mental model of style premia for what he prefers to call “the Star Wars framework.”
We chat about volatility ETPs, their impact on the volatility landscape, and how the market has changed since February 2018. And with some spectacular option-driven blow-ups in the last couple of years, I ask Benn for his guidance on how he would think about due diligence in the space.
Finally, while Benn deals exclusively with institutions at QVR, I get his thoughts on how volatility investing might play a role for individual investors.
We go deep with this one. So let’s dive in.
