In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on March 26, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss how upcoming tariff announcements and end-of-month market events could spark volatility.
They warn that the market may be underestimating the impact of potential tariffs, especially if Trump takes a hardline stance.
Both suggest using longer-dated downside put spreads as a more reliable and cost-effective way to hedge against a possible sell-off rather than relying on complex VIX strategies.
They also touch on shifting market dynamics, cautioning that the easy gains in tech may be over, and investors may need to adjust as earnings season approaches and macro risks build.
