Is it risky to sell options on OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORP /DE/ (OXY) right now?
Over a 4-week expiry window, OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORP /DE/ (OXY) scores 29 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (LOW). The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 2 recent news items and 10 active legal filings within the 4-week window. A LOW score (under 45) means the scan found no dated catalyst for OXY inside the window. Read it as a clean calendar rather than a safe stock — surprises are by definition unscheduled.
OXY shows an IV Rank of 62, putting implied volatility in the middle of its one-year range — options are moderately priced, with a current implied volatility of about 43%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on OXY.
The 2026-11-09 earnings report sits inside a standard monthly expiry for OXY, so implied volatility should stay bid into the date and drop sharply once it passes.

OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORP /DE/ (OXY) next earnings date — 2026-11-09
OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORP /DE/ (OXY) reports earnings on 2026-11-09 — about 64 days away, which falls inside a typical options expiry window. OXY's IV Rank is currently 62. Earnings are the single biggest scheduled catalyst for an overnight gap: implied volatility usually runs up into the report and collapses immediately after (the IV crush). Selling premium into the event captures that crush but exposes you to the gap; buying premium needs a move large enough to beat the elevated IV you paid.
