How investors can play the moves in the market, and a look at Amazon (AMZN) as a play to sell the rally
On today’s Options News, Carrie Long and the ONN.tv team cover the significant drop in the CBOE SPX Volatility Index (VIX). The VIX dropped more than 8% to 25 as the broader market seems to have started a recovery rally. We could also see another drop in the VIX during today’s trading session following better-than-expected earnings figures from Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ).
ONN.tv Chief Investment Strategist Jud Pyle discusses another strategy to interpret market moves: selling the rally, instead of buying the dips. Investors intrigued by these plays could take a look at Amazon (AMZN), which is scheduled to announce earnings after the market closes on Thursday. Pyle says AMZN is an example of a stock that might not drop, but might be hard-pressed to rally.
