Wall Street recently peddled investment tools that allowed retail investors to track the inverse performance of the VIX, an index that tracks market volatility.
Wall Street firms promised immense gains from these funds with manageable risk.
That all went up in smoke on Feb. 5, when the VIX more than doubled in the course of an hour and sent these inverse funds into free fall.

"What will Warren buy?"
That's the question at the forefront of many people's minds today after Berkshire Hathaway revealed a gigantic $116 billion cash hoard in its annual shareholder letter over the weekend.
It's not just an academic exercise, either. $116 billion is serious money, even in 2018, and when that kind of cash goes into play, it'll have very real implications for every investor.
Naturally, every financial writer on Earth rushed to write "Buffett Will Buy XXX, So You Should Too."
It's a tempting idea. It even tempted me for two seconds or so, until this occurred to me…
With a cash pile of over $116 billion, it makes no sense whatsoever for Buffett and No. 2 man Charlie Munger to buy anything for a penny less than $10 billion.
It just would not move the needle much at all. The not-inconsiderable hassle of filing the regulatory documents for such a deal would make it not worthwhile.
I think it will be much more interesting (and profitable) for us to think about Warren might do if Berkshire was not quite as large and he had a little more flexibility.
Looking at his published acquisition criteria, he likes… the same kinds of companies I do.
Businesses that are consistently profitable, simple to understand and manage, with excellent management willing to stay in place.
I sat down and spent some time thinking about what the Oracle of Omaha would – not should – buy if the size made sense.
