All may not be as it seems on Wall Street<\/strong>, with investors increasingly looking to protective puts, volatility hedging, tail risk hedging, and other strategies to insure against the potential of market volatility and even market crashes, even as the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq all hit multiple all-time records in quick succession this month amid a post-election market rally.<\/p>\n

To say that US markets are bullish would be an understatement<\/strong>, with the S&P 500 up 3.7% since the election on 5 November, the Nasdaq is up 3.8% over the same period, and the Dow Jones is leading the pack up by 5.9%. Some big name and established companies have also seen their share prices rise more in just the last few weeks than many do over several years, with Axon Enterprise seeing its share price an impressive 44.0%, Tesla stocks up 37.1%, and Vistra Corp witnessing a 26.8% rise in the price of its stocks.<\/p>\n

Bu<\/strong>t some traders are preparing for the possibility that the good times could come to an<\/strong> abrupt end sooner than expected<\/strong>, as trackers that gauge the uptake of protection measures against market volatility picked up in the second half of this month. The Nations TailDex Index \u2014 which measures the market\u2019s expectations of a potential dramatic drop in equity prices \u2014 initially reacted well to Trump\u2019s electoral victory, but is now noting a souring of the mood among investors, having picked up 28.2% since 14 November. It\u2019s a similar story for the Cboe Skew Index \u2014 which measures the perception of tail risk in S&P 500 investment returns in the next 30 days \u2014 with the gauge picking up 19.7% since 12 November after a brief post-election respite and now sitting firmly in high-risk territory.<\/p>\n

Caution, more than panic, is what is driving the buys<\/strong>, RBC Capital Markets\u2019 Amy Wu Silverman told Reuters<\/a>, as investors are more likely being cautious in the face of the likelihood of an uptick in US inflation and unpredictable trade disruptions from Trump\u2019s proposed draconian tariffs<\/a> \u2014 as opposed to a full-fledged market crash. \u201cWhile investors broadly remain long equities, the tails are fatter \u2026 this is partly from a rise in geopolitical risk premium and certainly potential policy risk as Trump returns to the presidency and potentially enacts tariffs and other measures,\" she explained. Susquehanna\u2019s Chris Murphy, agrees, explaining that \u201cthe general idea is there is an 80-95% chance of pretty low volatility \u2026 but there\u2019s just more of a tail event being factored in.\u201d<\/p>\n

MARKETS THIS MORNING-<\/p>\n

Asian markets are mixed in early trading this morning<\/strong>, with Japan\u2019s Nikkei leading in the green at +0.5% and Korea\u2019s Kospi at +0.3%, while China\u2019s Shanghai index is edging into the red at -0.1% and Hong Kong\u2019s Hang Seng is down 0.5%.<\/p>\n
