Can’t really compare VIX to realized vol (Kolanovic knows this ofc). The VIX is high because the skew premium and convexity premium are high ie investors think you will get absolutely murdered if you sell vol and there is a big correction.https://twitter.com/macrocephalopod/status/1357838424699531269 …

Best way to understand this is as a sales pitch. Banks love to buy variance, especially with a fat spread built in, but customers have stopped selling it. K trying to change that!

I think the reality is a learned a lot of the theory from reading textbooks and papers, and almost everything about the practicalities from reading you and like 5-6 others on Twitter, so more true than you think!
