Is it risky to sell options on MONOLITHIC POWER SYSTEMS INC (MPWR) right now?
MONOLITHIC POWER SYSTEMS INC (MPWR) currently scores 100 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH) over a 4-week expiry window. The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 13 recent news items and 4 active legal filings within the 4-week window. On TickerRisk's scale 70 and above is HIGH, so a known event is scheduled inside this window — selling premium on MPWR here is a bet on that event rather than on time decay. The score measures scheduled event exposure, not which way the stock will move.
MPWR shows an IV Rank of 70 — implied volatility is near the top of its own one-year range, so MPWR options are historically expensive, which favours premium-selling strategies, with a current implied volatility of about 71%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on MPWR.
MPWR reports on 2026-07-30. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.
