Historical volatility levels are slowly recovering. However, our trading doesn't need to be on pause until systemic market conditions change tack. Heavy scheduled - and likely unscheduled - event risk are due this week. Items like Janet Yellen's semi-annual testimony, Chinese GDP, UK inflation statistics and troubling headlines for the Euro-area's capital markets all have the fundamental heft to alter the outlook for financial health, activity levels and yield forecasts.
