A low volatility tends to precede high volatility
Diupdate
The major U.S. stock market indices are trading in the negative territory ahead of the release of inflation data and the Consumer Price Index (CPI). A hotter-than-expected print is likely to produce a pop in volatility and convince central bankers in Washington to keep monetary conditions tight during the upcoming meeting in March. Consequently, we pay close attention to the VIX index, which has been testing the resistance at $14.49 since the start of the year. In addition to that, we watch a concerning relationship between the declining volume and the increasing price.

Illustration 1.02 displays the daily graph of the VIX. The yellow arrow indicates yesterday’s opening gap. One notable thing about the VIX is that it has been trading below $15.50 for 92 trading sessions. To find a similar low-volatility period, one would have to go back to late 2017/early 2018 (shortly before the massive spike in volatility and market selloff).
