I think we will never be able to build a single black box to value volatility, otherwise markets will cease to exist and we in risk will be out of business. However, it will be possible to build a framework to structure volatility modeling process. Like the general equilibrium modeling approach you proposed. Atleast we can agree on the key drivers of supply and demand and the significant variables of a fundamental model. I hope we get to have a continuing discussion on this topic. I would also request if you could please send me a copy of you power point presentation. Thanks Sajjad H.
