    What Nassim Taleb Did on Black Monday 1987

    If VIX is a measure of implied volatility in S&P options...

    The absolute level of rates is not important as to whether you should exercise. Sure, higher rates equates to more money. But to a bank that has a 100 million dollar position, if the net benefit is > 0 then they should exercise. Also, you want less time, not more. The more time you add, the...
