\u2013 know that while I\u2019m quite liberal with my use of citations and web links, I rarely repurpose content from other sources.&nbsp; Today I will make an exception.&nbsp; Though to be fair, I\u2019m repurposing content that I helped create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was pleasantly surprised when I first checked my email today and noticed this:&nbsp; \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/morning-brief-volatility-july-21-100039889.html\">Why One Strategist Calls This Market Rally &#8216;Socially Acceptable Volatility&#8217;<\/a>\u201d.&nbsp; The source was the Yahoo Finance Morning Brief, which offers daily market commentary from one of their journalists, and to which I\u2019m a subscriber (it\u2019s free, btw).&nbsp; I was fortunate to join their team in studio yesterday for the first time in years, and while I was well aware that <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/video\/bear-market-don-t-fooled-135845449.html\">a clip of my appearance was available on their platform<\/a>, seeing it as their featured story today was quite a treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term \u201csocially acceptable volatility\u201d should be a familiar one to many of you.&nbsp; We first wrote about it (coincidentally) <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/socially-acceptable-volatility\/\">exactly one year ago today<\/a>, then revisited the topic again in February both <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/socially-acceptable-volatility-redux\/\">in print<\/a> and in a <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/podcasts\/traders-insight-radio-podcast\/financial-silly-putty-and-socially-acceptable-volatility\/\">podcast with my friend Steve Sears<\/a>.[i]&nbsp; The concept is rather simple \u2013 investors are biased toward rising markets.&nbsp; If you\u2019ve invested in stocks, by definition you want and expect them to rise.&nbsp; And over time they do rise.&nbsp; But not always.&nbsp; We tend to worry about market volatility when we decline by a significant amount but take a similar rise in relative stride.&nbsp; They\u2019re <em>supposed<\/em> to go up, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to remember that <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/options\/making-sense-of-the-three-types-of-volatility\/\">volatility is a mathematical concept<\/a>, measuring up and down moves alike.&nbsp; Yet when it comes to market psychology, we know that they are vastly different.&nbsp; Traders clamor for protection from volatility when markets decline, yet shun protection when they rise.&nbsp; Investors want to be exposed to the upward moves.&nbsp; That is why VIX acts as the market\u2019s \u201cfear gauge\u201d even though it is <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/vix-is-not-now-nor-has-it-ever-been-the-fear-index\/\">not explicitly constructed as such<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I urge you to watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/video\/bear-market-don-t-fooled-135845449.html\">linked video<\/a>, especially if you\u2019re one of those who complain that I have largely abandoned videos in favor of the written format for this site.[ii]&nbsp; Bottom line, I remain skeptical that we have truly seen the <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/a-bottom-or-the-bottom\/\">end of this bear market<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp; I believe that at a minimum, we need to see the Fed and other major central banks signal that they have ceased <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/quantitative-tightening-or-plateauing\/\">their restrictive monetary measures<\/a> before we can make a lasting move higher.&nbsp; The ECB raised rates today, the Fed is expected to do so next week, and <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/quantitative-tightening-or-plateauing\/\">quantitative tightening is yet to kick in in full force<\/a>.&nbsp; Until we see a change in these tactics <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/dont-fight-the-fed\/\">you\u2019re fighting the Fed<\/a>, which is a tactic that rarely succeeds in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[i] Steve Sears actually came up with the term, which I adopted with his permission and encouragement.&nbsp; I promised to footnote him whenever possible \u2013 here\u2019s an actual footnote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[ii] If you\u2019re wondering why, there are a few reasons.&nbsp; First, while they are easier for me to tape, they are much more onerous on the website manager, editors and compliance staff upon whom I rely.&nbsp; Second, now that I have had to edit our podcast transcripts, I realize that I am a vast repository of verbal tics and false starts.&nbsp; The written format allows me to edit those out.&nbsp; Third, it is much easier to reference a point I have previously made in a written than a video piece.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve invested in stocks, by definition you want and expect them to rise.
