For the S&P 500, the last two years have been nothing short of spectacular, with consecutive gains exceeding 23% in both 2023 and 2024. This is a rare occurrence, something not seen since the late 1990s during the dot-com boom. Over the past six years, aside from the sharp correction in 2022, the index has consistently posted impressive returns, often climbing between 15% and nearly 30% annually.

Tracks the $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ implied volatility over the next 30 days.
Often called the "fear gauge," it reflects the market’s expectations of volatility (price swings) in large-cap U.S. stocks.
2. VXN:
