Is it risky to sell options on Baker Hughes Co (BKR) right now?

Over a 4-week expiry window, Baker Hughes Co (BKR) scores 79 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH). That score is driven by an upcoming earnings report, 6 recent news items and 2 active legal filings falling inside the 4-week window. A HIGH reading (70+) means BKR has a dated event inside the window, so an option sold here carries gap risk that time decay alone will not pay for. The score ranks event exposure, not the likely direction of the move.

BKR shows an IV Rank of 34, near the low end of its one-year range — options are relatively cheap, which favours option buyers over sellers, with a current implied volatility of about 45%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on BKR.

The 2026-10-27 earnings report sits inside a standard monthly expiry for BKR, so implied volatility should stay bid into the date and drop sharply once it passes.

Baker Hughes Co (BKR) current implied volatility and IV Rank

BKR's IV Rank stands at 34 right now with implied volatility around 45%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 79/100. That's low — options are cheap relative to the past year, which favours premium-buying strategies such as long calls, long puts and debit spreads when you expect a move.
