UVXY: Get Ready To Short Volatility Again
Volatility has been rising due to election seasonality, but I believe it may be peaking with the U.S. presidential election in two weeks. The UVXY ETF, which provides 1.5x leveraged exposure to short-dated VIX futures, suffers from 'volatility decay' and is a near-perpetual short candidate due to its structure. The current backwardation in the VIX curve has temporarily benefited UVXY, but post-election, the curve should normalize into contango, resuming UVXY's long-term decay.

UVXY And VXX: Time To Be Short Volatility
VXX and UVXY are long volatility ETPs using VIX futures for convex payoff in the event of a market crash. VIX is at 24 following a dramatic spike to 60. Both ETPs have had huge rallies, but the rally is expected to be short-lived. Long volatility funds like UVXY and VXX tend to bleed capital due to negative roll yield, making them terrible for long-term holding.

UVXY: The VIX Is Too Low
Market sentiment remains bullish despite geopolitical issues and economic uncertainties. October is historically volatile for the stock market, and there's potential for a correction as election uncertainty peaks. UVXY offers short-term trading opportunities for investors expecting a potential increase in market volatility.

UVXY: A Second Quarter Play On A Market Shift
The S&P 500 has broken trend support and is experiencing its largest decline since October last year. Volatility is slowly increasing, and the VIX could potentially reach 21. The ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF is a potential short-term trade to profit from a stock market downturn.

Playing A January Volatility Bounce With UVXY
China's Manufacturing PMI fell unexpectedly in December, indicating potential macro risks as we kick off 2024. The S&P 500 is near its all-time high and overall volatility levels are very low ahead of key macro data and the Q4 earnings season. January is typically a strong month for the VIX, so being long UVXY for a short-term hedge could prove wise in my view.
