Stock Bulls Resilient Amid Nasdaq 100 Volatility, VIX Hedging Opportunity Emerges
US stocks rebounded from a potential major sell-off, with the Nasdaq 100 rallying 1.5% and the S&P 500 closing just 12 points lower. Despite market turbulence, the Cboe VIX Index (volatility measure) ended lower, suggesting a potential hedging opportunity as semiconductor stock volatility outpaces the broader market. Options traders showed interest in VIX calls, while bearish sentiment was clear in long-term bond ETFs following CPI data.
