The Worldvolatility still resides in the lower range of the uptrend that started in 2014. A low reading at 5,27% occured in the beginning of July before the North Korea story broke out. The Worldvolatility stands today at 5,47%. The period since 2014 is starting to look a lot like the late 1990s. Back then the Worldvolatility went sharply from around 6% to 8% before Nasdaq broke in March of 2000. A sharp increase(say before Q4 2018) up to 8% from where we are now would look a lot like 1999 all over again. Right now it is too early to say if this will happen.
