概要

 The Cboe Volatility Index, known as the VIX, currently stands at a spot price of 21.01 as of February 23, 2026, according to Cboe Global Markets data. This reflects a percent change of 10.06 percent, up 1.92 points from the prior close.

The CBOE website reports this VIX spot price amid stable oil markets following recent US strikes, with WTI 1M implied volatility easing to 51 percent after peaking at 68 percent last week. Fears of oil supply disruptions have subsided, keeping US inflation expectations steady unlike during the 2022 Russia-Ukraine events. The VIX, a measure of expected near-term volatility in S&P 500 options, shows a 52-week range of 13.38 low to 60.13 high, highlighting its mean-reverting nature toward long-term averages.

Recent historical data from Investing.com indicates volatility around the 17 to 20 range in early February, with closes like 20.82 on February 12 and 17.65 on February 11, suggesting an upward trend into late February. FRED St. Louis Fed data confirms closes of 19.09 on February 20, 20.23 on February 19, and 19.62 on February 18, pointing to elevated but fluctuating levels driven by equity market concerns, including stretched valuations and cooling US economy signals. Cboe notes implied volatilities rose modestly last week amid anticipation of key economic releases, with SPX options implying heightened moves.

VIX futures, per Cboe Futures Exchange, trade higher in near terms, with the front month at 23.52 down 1.02, reflecting market bets on sustained volatility. This inverse relationship to the S&P 500 underscores hedging demand as stocks face downside risks.
