And he said markets are looking through the risks and they don’t seem to be concerned about default as they’re looking at even cross-asset volatility, as everybody’s like, “Let’s just get this over with and keep it moving.” But Vishnu came back with, you have to look at cross-asset vol for some asymmetric hedges. So Chase jumped right in, because I think second on that was debt ceiling and default. And right away, actually they started with a poll on this one, What is the biggest risk the audience felt was in volatility markets or that could affect volatility? And it was Fed policy, was the poll.Īnd then Vishnu came right out and goes, “Okay, I’m going to stop hedging that since these polls are obviously typically wrong.”Įxactly. I have a few pages of actually anecdotes that we can go through. Yeah, I think it might have been this, but Ben Ifer instead of Chase. I can’t remember if Chase was on the panel or not. It wasn’t Robbie from Optiver, you had the CEO, I can’t recall his name right now. This was the same crew last year, I believe, right?įairly close. I’ll leave that be, but yeah, give me your quick thoughts on this panel. And actually the people who actually make the decisions for those billions of dollars. So a couple billions of dollars there on stage. And that’s Will Bartlett, CEO of Parallax, Robbie Knopp, head of S&P options training at Optiver, Vishnu of Volar Capital Management who used to be at Citadel, and Chase Muller or Muller, I’m not sure, head of global macro at One River Asset Management. I’ll get around to it eventually when you guys change it. So it was Natalie Reed of CBOE, which I still call C-B-O-E. So this was leaders in volatility, and talking about monetizing dislocations globally. And then this panel is typically my favorite with some all-stars here. So the last, this was tough because I wanted to say that LT panel was my favorite one, but then our guys, Corey was good on that panel.
