War with Russia? Check Vix Backwardation

Putting aside fiscal support...check out:

1) Vix short and medium term
2) Vix backwardation (if any)
3) Skew and Vix combo

If we see any wardation in the Vix or Vix vs ETFs...its a short trade on:

1) SPX, DIA, DJIA
2) check off risk ..long Dollar Short Commodities.

As a side note: will Gold out perform BTC in an off risk event?
