$SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$ $GLD option volume hit record highs last week, sending 1M IV to 30% (5Y high!). Gold vol now trades 4σ above long-term avg.

Despite the equity rally, risk aversion rose: $SPX skew steepened to 1Y high as traders sold upside calls to fund downside protection.

    The gold vol spike’s wild because it’s not fear-driven, it’s structural. Funds are rebuilding tail hedges after months of compression. GLD option volume breaking records just confirms it. I’m rotating a slice from $QQQ$ into gold and miners for the first time this year

    📈 You nailed it with the 4σ gold vol. I’m seeing similar hedging patterns in $GDXJ$ and even in long-dated treasury options. The asymmetry here’s incredible; risk parity models are clearly recalibrating to gold’s dominance.

    📊 I’m watching that same vol divergence between gold and equities and it’s fascinating. Gold’s IV spike feels similar to the move before $NEM ran in 2020. When GLD’s IV curve steepens like this, I tend to look at miners for convexity.

    📈你用4 σ Gold Vol做到了这一点。我在$GDXJ$甚至长期国债期权中看到了类似的对冲模式。这里的不对称令人难以置信;风险平价模型显然正在重新调整黄金的主导地位。

    💹看到黄金vol突破而$SPX$skew陡峭,我并不感到惊讶。这是一个教科书般的迹象,表明资金正在悄然转向保护。我持有一些$AEM评级作为对冲,以防这种波动蔓延到股票。

    that GLD chart’s nuts. Vol exploding while $SPX$ stays chill means something’s brewing under the surface. Big money’s buying insurance before retail even blinks. I’m all over that kind of setup, feels like pre-move energy 🧃
