The iShares MSCI China ETF (MCHI) was up about 22% on the month, while the KraneSharesCSI China Internet ETF (KWEB) was up more than 32%.

☆ Now is probably a good time to hedge against downside risk in the stock market. Here are 4 ways you can protect your portfolio — including 2 that are historically cheap.

But with the market at an all-time high, now is probably a good time to hedge against potential downside, experts say. That's especially the case because there's an elevated degree of risk facing stocks, and the cost of some insurance measures is historically cheap.

AdvertisementRosenberg Research"The definition of a stretched market is one when the S&P 500 gaps 14% or more above the 200-day trendline. Beyond extreme, in fact — back to 1928, the S&P 500 has only drifted this far above the moving average 7% of the time," Rosenberg said.

☆ Reluctant to chase the rally? How to bet on a year-end pop with options
  + stars: | 2023-12-04 | by ( Michael Khouw | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) Index , which closed Friday at 12.63 is currently approaching 5-year lows. It is calculated from the prices of S & P 500 index options. Investors can speculate in VIX futures or VIX futures options, but understanding the futures "term structure" (how the prices of various futures of different expiration relate to each other) isn't that straightforward. Consider the following chart of the Barclays iPath S & P 500 (VXX) , an exchange traded note which is intended to track the S & P 500 short-term VIX futures total return index vs. the VIX Index itself. If one is inclined to make a bullish bet, but is reluctant to get caught "chasing" after the market has already rallied sharply, perhaps we can take advantage of the fact options prices are well below average.

☆ Bond yields and volatility are spiking. These ETFs should benefit
  + stars: | 2023-07-06 | by ( Jesse Pound | In Jesse-Pound | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Wall Street's glide toward higher stocks and falling bond yields was jolted into reverse Thursday, as surprisingly strong economic data sent bond yields soaring and stocks tumbling . For example, the iPath Series B S & P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX) and the ProShares VIX Short-Term Futures ETF (VIXY) serve as bets that investor expectations of volatility will go up from here. The UVXY is designed to provide 1.5-times returns of the VIX short-term futures and was up about 8% in midday trading. Rising yields Profiting from rate spikes through bond funds can be a bit tricky. The biggest fund in that space is the iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF (FLOT) , which was little changed on Thursday.

☆ These are the Dow stocks you want to own the most if the Fed sparks a risk-on rally
  + stars: | 2022-11-01 | by ( Michelle Fox | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Beaten-down stocks could be the big beneficiaries of a potential Federal Reserve-fueled rally this week. It would be the Fed 's fourth straight 0.75 percentage point increase in its campaign to tame inflation. Instead, investors will focus on what Fed Chair Jerome Powell may signal about future rate increases on Wednesday. Any signs that the Fed will slow the pace of tightening could ease investors' fears of a recession and result in a risk-on rally. The iPhone maker is down 13.3% so far this year, far less than other hard-hit tech stocks.
