Low-Volatility Stocks Are Acting Differently This Year. Blame The Rate Hikes: (SPLV) - (SPMV)

TedTed
edited October 2018 in The Bullpen
FYI: When the S&P 500 plunged 10% in January, investors who held “low-volatility” stocks expected reasonably that they’d fare much better than the overall market. They were profoundly disappointed. The S&P 500 Low Volatility Index tumbled 9% in the two weeks after the market peak on Jan. 26, barely better than the overall market.
