Cboe wants to turn the VIX into a never-ending trade.

The company is exploring new ways to expand access to volatility trading, making the VIX more active and accessible for traders around the world. If successful, this could create fresh opportunities in both bull and bear markets, allowing investors to trade market fear and uncertainty almost 24/7.

As volatility becomes a tradable asset class of its own, products linked to the VIX may attract more attention from institutional and retail traders alike. This move could reshape how investors hedge risk, speculate on market movements, and manage portfolios in the future.
