QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
You can invest directly in indexes that mimic the S&P 500 or the Russell 2000, etc.. The index fund either buys each and every stock that is listed in the index (for the S&P 500, for example), or for the larger indexes buys a samping of the stocks that will resemble the index. There is no mutual fund or ETF that mimics the VIX, so you cannot invest in a fund that looks just like it. This is primarily because the VIX is not quoted (arrived at) in a way that would be trackable this way. However, you can invest in VIX options and VIX futures. 3 years ago There are currently no comments for this question. * You must be logged ...
