Is it risky to sell options on Bank of New York Mellon Corp (BNY) right now?

For a 4-week expiry, Bank of New York Mellon Corp (BNY) carries an options catalyst-risk score of 70 out of 100 (HIGH). The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 11 recent news items, 10 active legal filings and 2 recent SEC events within the 4-week window. A HIGH reading (70+) means BNY 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.

BNY shows an IV Rank of 20, 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 28%. Read IV Rank alongside the catalyst score: it says how expensive BNY options are, while the score says whether that price is justified by a scheduled event.

BNY is scheduled to report earnings on 2027-01-15, which falls inside a typical monthly options expiry — expect elevated implied volatility into the event and an IV crush afterward.

Bank of New York Mellon Corp (BNY) current implied volatility and IV Rank

As of the latest scan, Bank of New York Mellon Corp (BNY) shows an IV Rank of 20 with implied volatility around 28%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 70/100. Options on BNY are inexpensive by its own recent history. Long premium and debit structures get more for their money at this level, while sellers are being paid little to carry the risk.

Bank of New York Mellon Corp (BNY) next earnings date — 2027-01-15

The next BNY report lands on 2027-01-15 — about 86 days away — inside the window a typical monthly option would span. BNY's IV Rank is currently 20. That matters more than any other single date on the calendar: the stock can gap overnight on the print, and any premium you collect now is partly payment for carrying that gap. Sellers who want the volatility crush without the gap generally choose an expiry that ends before the report.
