Abstract
A stylized theoretical model with stochastic volatility suggests the existence of a trade-off between returns and volatility-of-volatility. Using the VVIX, a measure of the optionimplied volatility of the volatility index, we confirm this prediction and detect that timevarying aggregate volatility-of-volatility commands an economically substantial and statistically significant negative risk premium. We find that a two-standard-deviation increase in aggregate volatility-of-volatility factor loadings is associated with a decrease in average annual returns of about 11%. These results are robust to controlling for aggregate volatility, jump risk, and several other characteristics and factor sensitivities, as well as various additional tests.
