The S&P 500 has gained almost 10% from its lowest close of the year, set in early October. Accompanying that has been a Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), which measures the extent of expected swings in stock prices, at the 21 level, close to its low for the second half of the year. To be sure, that's fairly elevated, historically speaking, as the VIX was often below 15 for the post-financial crisis era. Still, 20 isn't as high as it could go, as it has gone into the mid-30s several times this year. Enabling the calm has been hope that the Federal Reserve will slow down the pace of rate hikes, which threaten to put the economy into a recession; hikes are designed to dent demand in order to reduce the rate of inflation. /jlne.ws/3FxBukO FIA Expo: ICE's Brian Norris Talks ESG Investment, Carbon Credits And Market Data Abdelaziz Fathi - Finance Feeds The FIA Futures & Options Expo, now in its 38th year, convened the listed derivatives dealers, thought industry leaders and other stakeholders for two days of networking.

FinanceFeeds Editor in Chief Nikolai Isayev sat down with Brian Norris, VP of Global Sales and Trading Solutions at Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), to discuss challenges and opportunities for exchange-traded markets and the role of their respective offerings in the years ahead. /jlne.ws/3VYeRLV Stock Market Outlook: the Fed Won't Change Policy to Boost Falling Stocks Jennifer Sor - Markets Insider Markets are wrong for thinking that the Federal Reserve will change its path if stocks are reeling from its aggressive rate hikes, and investors should be prepared for a volatile January, according to Bank of America's chief stock strategist Savita Subramanian. /jlne.ws/3h6wN84 $3,000 gold and more outrageous market predictions investors shouldn't brush aside. Barbara Kollmeyer - MarketWatch Monday served as another smackdown for investors who are banking on a Goldilocks economy and a less aggressive Fed. Some are now not ruling out a Grinch-like turn from the central bank â a 0.75% hike next week instead of the 0.50% markets have been pinning hopes on â following strong data on services, jobs and wages. /jlne.ws/3iHe83k High input costs and rising interest rates top concerns as farmer sentiment remains unchanged CME Group Unlike the two most recent presidential elections, the November mid-term election outcomes did little to swing farmer sentiment. The Purdue University/CME Group Ag Economy Barometer came in at a reading of 102 in November, unchanged from October. There was however a slight movement in both of the barometer's sub-indices. The Current Conditions Index declined 3 points to a reading of 98 while the Future Expectations Index increased 2 points to a reading of 104. The Ag Economy Barometer is calculated each month from 400 U.S. agricultural producers' responses to a telephone survey. This month's survey was conducted after the U.S. mid-term elections from November 14-18. /jlne.ws/3FawlxN U.S. Crude Closes at Lowest Price of 2022 David Uberti - WSJ U.S. crude prices continued a months-long selloff Tuesday, dragging prices into negative territory for 2022.

The benchmark has fallen by nearly 40% since a March 8 high reached after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. /jlne.ws/3VXtwHa
