Sobering @markets factoid ... especially when considered in a "risk factor" framework given that #markets have only internalized in a significant way two of the four major changes in the operating paradigm (the four being interest rate, liquidity, credit, and market functioning).
#ESAs recommend significant changes to the #PRIIPs Regulation and encourage @EU_Commission to:
〰️ consider a broad review of the PRIIPs framework
〰️ undertake appropriate consumer testing before formulating proposals for changes

1/ Quite an eventful day today.
First, it's interesting to see a -0.4% down move in $SPX accompanied by a lower $VIX.
Historically, it's not often that $VIX loses 2 pts on a half-percent sell-off in $SPX (chart below 👇)
It still sits >30, implying daily 2% moves in $SPX.

US #Inflation rate jumps to 7.9% in Feb, hits 40y high even before #oil spike. Excluding volatile food and energy components, so-called core prices increased 6.4% YoY. 7.9% jump was the biggest since 1981. Services costs increased 4.8% YoY, the biggest advance since 1991.
Interesting reading material re: self-reinforcing feedback loops on #stocks' capitalizations and price levels, confirming the old tongue-in-cheek "more buyers than sellers" adage.

1/x) Circling back to some of my points in this thread. I've already extensively discussed diminishing liquidity since Volmageddon & March 2020, yet the recovery appears to be breaking down. Equity market depth has begun deteriorating again & bid-ask spreads are getting stretched

Great stat @VIXandMore , had to double check this.
$VXX finishes the day down 15.7% which is the largest 1d decline in its history!
Steep term structure is doing its job with VX30 down only 13.4% on the day.
