US equities show bubble signals as volatility spikes and froth widens
TL;DR Summary
Bank of America derivatives strategists warn the U.S. stock market is edging toward bubble-like conditions, with Nasdaq-100 realized volatility at dot-com-era highs and froth building in pockets such as semiconductors; while the overall market isn’t yet in a bubble, other assets like the Kospi and the Bloomberg Commodity Index show extreme bubble-like dynamics. They suggest momentum plays via QQQ call spreads and hedges like VIX call spreads to navigate the risk amid a momentum-driven rally in megacap tech.
