VXX: Sell Volatility Ahead Of The Election (Rating Downgrade)
The upcoming US election has caused a pause in the S&P 500's uptrend and elevated the VIX, reflecting market uncertainty. Historical patterns suggest implied volatility spikes pre-election but drops post-election, leading to my sell rating on VXX. VXX is a risky, high-cost ETN with significant contango, making it unsuitable for long-term holding.

VXX: Lighting Does Not Strike Twice
VXX is an exchange-traded note (ETN), not an ETF, meaning it's backed by Barclays and carries additional bankruptcy risk. The fund tracks short-term VIX futures, making it highly sensitive to volatility changes. VXX typically loses value over time due to the negative roll effect. The August 5, 2024 VIX spike was a rare event, unlikely to repeat soon.

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.
