Is it risky to sell options on TEXTRON INC (TXT) right now?

TEXTRON INC (TXT) currently scores 24 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (LOW) over a 4-week expiry window. That score is driven by an upcoming earnings report, 4 recent news items and 10 active legal filings falling inside the 4-week window. Below 45 is LOW: TXT's calendar looks clear across this window. Unscheduled news can still move any stock, so a low score is the absence of a known event, not the absence of risk.

TXT shows an IV Rank of 16, 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%. IV Rank answers how TXT options are priced against their own history, which is the starting point for choosing between selling and buying premium.

TXT reports on 2026-10-22. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.

TEXTRON INC (TXT) next earnings date — 2026-10-22

The next TXT report lands on 2026-10-22 — about 46 days away — inside the window a typical monthly option would span. TXT's IV Rank is currently 16. 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.
