MOVE/VIX (rates-vol vs equity-vol), OVX/VIX (oil), GVZ/VIX (gold) — which corner of the market is carrying the volatility right now.
How to read Read where stress is concentrated — 'rates vol is rich vs equity vol right now'. A present-state ratio, not a signal.
DESCRIPTIVE co-movement. OVX and VIX are cointegrated and the complex tends to move together in distress — but this describes the present, it does not forecast.
The average pairwise 60-day realized correlation of daily changes among VIX, MOVE, OVX and GVZ — how tightly the whole vol complex is co-moving.
How to read Toward 1 = the complex is moving together (a broad-stress signature); near 0 = idiosyncratic. A present-state co-movement read.
🚨 A realized correlation on raw observables — NOT a regime-switching classifier (the Markov-switching method was refuted as non-observable) and NOT a forecast.
