"You gotta be nuts to make this trade..." Karim Rahemtulla, Head Fundamental Tactician, Monument Traders Allianace What I'm about to show you is a real trade, and I'll attempt to go through what this trader was thinking and why they got positioned the way they did. As a warning, the implications are quite ugly. After explaining the trade, I will tell you what you should do instead. The Trade... In recent market sessions, a trader bought 50,000 VIX March $150 call options. They're trading for around $0.19 per contract. Let's break this down... Basically, in my view, this person spent $950,000 to essentially protect themselves against Armageddon. Why do I think that? Well, right now, the VIX is at 31. At the height of the COVID crash in March of 2020, it broke 80. At the very peak of the Great Recession, it broke 80 as well (in November of 2008). Just so we're clear, the VIX has never gotten to 150. The two biggest market panics over the last two decades saw the VIX spike to 80. But right now, someone thinks that it won't spike back only to those all-time highs - it'll DOUBLE the highest levels we've ever seen. The only thing I can think of to explain this trade is that the buyer is preparing for nuclear war. For this trade to pay off, the world would need to end. And if it does... what good would hitting a huge VIX winner be, anyway? This is a very morbid topic, so I won't continue down this rabbit hole. Do YOU own any of these tech stocks?
