Re: S&P500 volatility

Jason Goepfert, founder of Sundial Capital Research and author of the SentimenTrader Daily Report, quantifies just how quiet it has really been: Through Tuesday’s close, the S&P 500 went 37 trading days without a 1% daily change. That’s the second-longest streak in the past 15 years, according to his calculations.

Re: S&P500 volatility

For 40 days, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (SPX) has failed to post a gain or loss exceeding 1 percent, the longest stretch of calm since 1995.
