Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Put options accounted for just over half of contracts traded, while the S&P 500 fell 4.4% and the Nasdaq 100 dropped more than 6%. The VIX spiked to its highest level since March. The surge underscores how aggressively investors are repositioning for downside risk after a prolonged rally. Watch whether elevated put demand and volatility persist into the next session or fade as hedges are unwound.
