À propos de cet audio

 The Cboe Volatility Index, or VIX, is currently showing a sale price of 16.91 as of the close on October 30, 2025, according to recent figures from the Cboe Global Markets and the Federal Reserve Economic Data portal. This represents a marginal decrease of 0.01 points from the previous day’s close of 16.92, translating to a percent change of approximately -0.06 percent.

This minor decline comes amid a broader trend of reduced volatility, with the VIX Index falling from a recent high above 17.70 earlier in the month. In the past week, the VIX moved down 4.4 points to reach 16.4 percent, settling near its 39th percentile low for the trailing year, as noted by Cboe Global Markets. The gradual decrease reflects somewhat improved market sentiment.

Underlying this percent change are several factors. The recent easing of inflationary pressures, as indicated by softer-than-expected Consumer Price Index data, has provided a stabilizing influence on equity markets. Additionally, a reduction in geopolitical tensions and strong US equity performance helped suppress volatility. Investors have responded to this environment by increasing upside call buying, contributing to lower implied volatility readings.

Notably, VIX options trading volumes spiked, running at three times their 20-day average, while S&P 500 options also saw record activity. This suggests that while headline volatility readings are subdued, market participants remain vigilant, using options both to hedge and to speculate in a landscape still shaped by residual uncertainty.

The prevailing theme is that markets are experiencing lower-than-average volatility as concerns about spikes in uncertainty have temporarily eased. However, the elevated trading in volatility-related products highlights ongoing sensitivity to potential economic and geopolitical shocks.
