The VIX, or the volatility index, is the first suspect to get into the eyes of any investor who wants to insure themselves from a further fall in the indices.
The fear index reached a 23-year minimum in the past week and yesterday saw a significant depreciation of its lowest values. However, as history shows, this may only be the beginning of the indicator's appreciation. It is quite possible to witness a test at the highest levels of the indicator of more than 16 points.
What else can be traded by investors fearing a further fall in the indices. A completely logical answer is - companies with a negative relationship with the market, or with a negative beta.
