About this episode
With the stock market hitting record highs, many are wondering if it will continue to soar or come crashing down. One way to tell what’s on the mind of investors is to look at the options market. Bloomberg’s Carly Wanna tells host David Gura that average daily call volume on the VIX, often called the “fear gauge,” was up in the first quarter.
So, should we be worried that traders are preparing for the possibility of a big downturn? Today on the show, what's driving markets to all-time highs, and what the VIX tells us about what investors think will come next.
