Is it risky to sell options on WILLIAMS COMPANIES, INC. (WMB) right now?
Over a 4-week expiry window, WILLIAMS COMPANIES, INC. (WMB) scores 22 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (LOW). What pushes it there: an upcoming earnings report, 4 recent news items, 1 active legal filing and 3 recent SEC events, all landing inside the 4-week window. Below 45 is LOW: WMB'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.
WMB shows an IV Rank of 60, putting implied volatility in the middle of its one-year range — options are moderately priced, with a current implied volatility of about 31%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on WMB.
The 2026-11-02 earnings report sits inside a standard monthly expiry for WMB, so implied volatility should stay bid into the date and drop sharply once it passes.

WILLIAMS COMPANIES, INC. (WMB) next earnings date — 2026-11-02
WILLIAMS COMPANIES, INC. (WMB) is scheduled to report on 2026-11-02 — about 57 days away, so a standard expiry would carry straight through it. WMB's IV Rank is currently 60.
