Is it risky to sell options on HP INC (HPQ) right now?

Over a 4-week expiry window, HP INC (HPQ) scores 30 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (LOW). The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 2 recent news items and 5 active legal filings within the 4-week window. On TickerRisk's scale anything below 45 is LOW, meaning no major scheduled catalyst was found in this window. That is not a guarantee against an unscheduled move — it means the calendar is clear, not that HPQ cannot fall.

HPQ shows an IV Rank of 70 — implied volatility is near the top of its own one-year range, so HPQ options are historically expensive, which favours premium-selling strategies, with a current implied volatility of about 51%. IV Rank answers how HPQ options are priced against their own history, which is the starting point for choosing between selling and buying premium.

HPQ reports on 2026-11-24. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after; the stock has moved up 5.2% recently.

HP INC (HPQ) current implied volatility and IV Rank
