The Kobeissi Letter(@KobeissiLetter):Volatility has rarely been this quiet. The Volatility Index, $VIX, has closed in the 14 to 17 point range for 25 consecutive trading days, the longest such streak since May 1992. The only comparable stretch over the last 34 years was in 2025, at 24 sessions. This comes as $VIX finished every trading day below 17 points in August. On Thursday, the index closed at 14.3 points, its 3rd-lowest daily close since December. All while the S&P 500 has traded for 26 consecutive sessions without a decline of at least -1.0%. The market is unusually calm.
