With an FOMC announcement during the trading day and earnings from Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta Platforms after the close, today offers the potential for some significant market fireworks.  The question is whether the market will react to the spectacle or decide there is nothing to see and disperse<\/a>.[1]<\/a>[i]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far this week we\u2019ve seen major indices trade in a relatively narrow range.\u00a0 This likely indicates some prudent position squaring ahead of a data deluge.\u00a0 After discussing volatility indices\u2019 relative yawn yesterday<\/a> morning, the minor selling that occurred yesterday afternoon was sufficient to get VIX and VIX9D to perk up a bit.\u00a0 Some traders seem to have taken that as a gentle reminder that markets can indeed go lower every so often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, as we look at short-term S&P 500 (SPX) options ahead of the FOMC meeting, we see the now-customary modest upside bias.  According to the IBKR Probability Lab, with SPX trading at 6377, we see a peak probability assigned to the 6385-6390 level for options expiring this afternoon, with an even higher peak of 6410-6415 for options expiring Friday.   That\u2019s understandable, considering the upside bias that indices have been displaying for weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, we see some definite risk aversion in near-term options skews.  Today\u2019s expiry is quite steep, while options expiring Friday and at the regular monthly August expiration understandably display flatter skews.  It\u2019s typical for options buyers to try to minimize their premia by waiting until the last moment to hedge.  The at-money daily volatility of about 1.3% is commensurate with recent post-FOMC daily moves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things get a bit more complicated when we look at the largest two of the roughly 50 SPX stocks that are set to report earnings today.  Risk aversion and FOMO play roughly equal roles in their pricing.  Note the obvious plateau in the probability distribution for MSFT options expiring Friday.  There is a barely discernible peak around the $500 level, about 2% below the current stock price, but the likelihoods of an outcome anywhere between $497.50 and $527.50 are quite similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MSFT skew for the upcoming weekly options shows a bit of a \u201cW\u201d shape.  A bit of a bump in near-money options disrupt what would otherwise be a generally steep skew with a trough about 10% above the current level.  The 4% daily implied volatility seen in at-money options is roughly commensurate with 3.57% average of the past two years of post-earnings moves, though it is well below the last three (+7.63%, -6.18%, -6.05%, -1.08%, 1.82%, -2.69%, 3.07%, -3.76%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expectations for META are a bit more cautious, but still not particularly troublesome.  We see a relatively symmetrical distribution, though with a pronounced peak in the $680 range, about 3% below the current $701 price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

META skew for Friday\u2019s options also shows somewhat of a \u201cW\u201d shape, though less pronounced than that of MSFT.  The peak is also in the at-money options, but it is notable that the strikes from about -10% lower to +20% higher have quite similar implied volatilities.  The at-money daily implied volatility of 6% is above the recent modest moves of less than 5%, but reflect traders\u2019 memories of last year\u2019s double digit percentage moves (+4.23%, +1.55%, -4.09%, +4.82%, -10.56%, +20.32%, -3.73%, +4.4%).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This afternoon, from about 2pm EDT on, could get spicy.\u00a0 Much depends upon the tone of the FOMC\u2019s statement, whether Chair Powell offers a \u201cGoldilocks<\/a>\u201d tone at his press conference, and how MSFT and\/or META earnings are greeted by investors.\u00a0 From a macro viewpoint, much matters whether those cross-currents offset or reinforce each other.\u00a0 If they offset, then the result will be relatively muted volatility.\u00a0 If they reinforce each other, then buckle up<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
