Playing A January Volatility Bounce With UVXY

  • China's Manufacturing PMI fell unexpectedly in December, indicating potential macro risks as we kick off 2024. The S&P 500 is near its all-time high and overall volatility levels are very low ahead of key macro data and the Q4 earnings season.

UVXY: Resist The Temptation To Play For A Rebound In VIX

  • The ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF is not a good long-term investment, despite its potential for dramatic short-term gains during market stress, due to its return of -83% since inception. The UVXY ETF's poor performance is due to the constant decay of VIX futures in its portfolio and the daily rebalancing to maintain 150% exposure. While the VIX Index is currently low, investors are advised to resist the temptation to bet on a rebound in volatility via the UVXY ETF.
