not for awhile, and even if it does it wont be for long. these are not the same markets as 2009-2014 when they continually went up no matter what was going on and vix was extremely depressed. its no coincidence that since the fed stopped qe almost a year ago the markets have essentially traded flat and now are starting to break lower. it appears that any rally is being sold and whats going to ...more

If sp500 pops back to 1950 which is very probable, hvu will be put in the coffers. Vix is pure scam

like I said even if hvu drops its not like the markets of past five years, hvu will continuously rebound from any rally in markets. so I agree that there will be counter trend rallies but what will keep the s&p from doing anything more than that? vix is a scam if you have no idea how to trade it.

Pre unit consolidation price is 6.8. Hvu was higher than 6.8 when sp500 was 2090. So why is it still lower even though sp500 plunged to 1885?

anyone who trades this should know its not a buy and hold. I trade this during specific months of the year. I really don't care about the consolidations.

So it is guaranteed that hvu will go below 40 even if the markets crash. Also the 52 week high is not 102 and the low is not 2.74. It is more like 300 high and 20.74. The 10:1 reverse split is meant to confuse and fool potential shareholders.

Zerohedge talks alot about the final 30 minutes of shorting the VIX (Most days it happens, though sometimes it appears at different hours, just to mess a person up). I have benefitted from this but did something stupid today - buying LABD in the final hour (the charts said it was good - but I should have known better). HVU is a dangerous play when the VIX is above 20.
