Big players are generally short vol.
50% of a small number and add in relative to cost of hedging the delta. Profits are smaller than you think.
IMHO. Time to get long vol. Short vol trade has been winning a very long time and really crowded now.
Curve steeper on vol would be conservative and definitely worth it.

Selling equity volatility at all time lows is not the best use of funds.
Better off selling foreign exchange vol.
Don't forget to hedge your delta.
