Is it risky to sell options on TARGET CORP (TGT) right now?
TARGET CORP (TGT) 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, 33 recent news items, 10 active legal filings and 1 recent SEC event within the 4-week window. A HIGH reading (70+) means TGT 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.
TGT shows an IV Rank of 75 — implied volatility is near the top of its own one-year range, so TGT options are historically expensive, which favours premium-selling strategies, with a current implied volatility of about 39%. IV Rank answers how TGT options are priced against their own history, which is the starting point for choosing between selling and buying premium.
TGT is scheduled to report earnings on 2026-08-19, which falls inside a typical monthly options expiry — expect elevated implied volatility into the event and an IV crush afterward.
