Description: VXX iPath Series SP500 VIX October 26, 2025

The iPath® Series B S&P 500® VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (ticker VXX) provides investors with exposure to a basket of CBOE VIX futures contracts of specified maturities, rather than to the VIX spot index itself. It is structured as an exchange-traded note (ETN) issued in the United States and classified under the “Trading-Miscellaneous” ETF category.

Key market metrics to watch include its expense ratio of roughly 0.83 % (as of 2025), an average daily trading volume of about 30 million shares, and a typical negative roll yield of -0.5 % to -0.7 % per month caused by the VIX futures term structure often being in contango. VXX’s price tends to move inversely to the S&P 500 during periods of heightened equity market stress, and its performance is highly sensitive to macro-economic drivers such as Federal Reserve policy shifts, earnings volatility, and geopolitical events that spike implied volatility.

If you want a granular, data-driven analysis of VXX’s roll dynamics and scenario-based risk metrics, the ValueRay platform offers interactive tools that can help you dig deeper.
