Adjusted R squared from regressing the one-month change on the basis, January 2006 to December 2011, 71 observations. The futures regression coefficient is minus 0.791 with a standard error of 0.276, significant at 1%. The spot regression coefficient is 0.231 with a standard error of 0.279, which is nothing.

The daily roll between spot VIX and the front future predicted where the future would go, with an adjusted R squared of 9.5%. The same signal has no power at all over spot VIX, where the adjusted R squared is negative.
