Chart of the Day - Tuesday, December 23, 2025

 

🏆 Today's Chart of the Day was shared by @SubuTrade.
 

  • The CBOE Volatility Index ($VIX) dropped for the fourth straight session, hitting a fresh 52-week low.
     
  • Subu notes that volatility has fallen sharply over the past month, and these rapid declines have been followed by strong equity gains.
     
  • In every prior instance, the S&P 500 was higher one week and one month later. This would align with the Santa Claus Rally period that has been absent over the past two years.
     

The Takeaway: Sharp declines in volatility have consistently led to near-term equity gains, suggesting a favorable setup for a potential Santa Claus Rally.
