On Dec. 19, 2025, U.S. stocks climbed amid a heavy options expiration day, with the S&P 500 rising nearly 1% and erasing its loss for the week. The move came as the market faced the simultaneous expiry of a record volume of options β a so-called "Triple Witching" event β which can compress liquidity and amplify price swings.
Traders noted the unusually large options flow approaching expiry could prompt sharp intraday moves as positions are closed or rolled. The S&P 500's rebound on the session reversed the index's negative performance earlier in the week, reflecting short-term positioning around the expirations.
Market participants typically watch Triple Witching days closely for higher volatility and end-of-cycle portfolio adjustments; on this occasion the net effect was a near 1% gain for the benchmark. #SP500 #TripleWitching #WallStreet #FiatNews
Commentary (19 December 2025): The author warns that the mindset of "this time it's different" is often cited as very dangerous β and with good reason. At the same time, the piece stresses it would be wrong to assume events always unfold "the same way" either.
The note highlights a paradox: conditions evolve, yet historical episodes can show recurring patterns. As the commentary puts it, "history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes," meaning past events may resemble current ones without being identical.
The brief commentary seeks to remind readers to recognise both change and the value of historical perspective when assessing markets and events. #investing #markets #FiatNews
