Περίληψη: The article reports that Cboe Global Markets Inc. is exploring the listing of perpetual futures based on the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), a measure of expected volatility in the S&P 500 options market over the next 30 days. Currently, there is no direct way to trade the VIX, though existing instruments like futures, options, and ETFs serve as imperfect proxies. Cboe's Rob Hocking, a former Goldman Sachs equity volatility trader, suggests perpetual futures could address this gap, offering leverage and a funding mechanism to anchor contracts to spot prices. However, he notes that options provide asymmetric payouts and capped losses, which may appeal to some investors. The article also highlights the growing presence of perpetual futures in crypto markets and calls for regulatory clarity before their expansion into traditional asset classes.
