Portfolio weighting: 10%
Number of Shares = 422 shares
You can pay all the way up to $24.50 for this Exchange Traded Note and it still makes sense.
I?m betting that sometime in my life, the Volatility Index (VIX) will trade below today?s $22.4. In fact, I expect it to trade back to the mid teens within the next few weeks.
Once we get through the New Year?s rebalancing?s, volatility should settle down. The surprise North Korea nuclear test has given us an excellent entry point.
After spending years stuck in in the $12-$15 range, it is nothing less than mind blowing to see it spike up to $31 this morning.
