Is it risky to sell options on Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) right now?

Over a 4-week expiry window, Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) scores 100 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH). That score is driven by 20 recent news items, 2 active legal filings and 1 recent SEC event falling inside the 4-week window. A HIGH reading (70+) means AVGO 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.

AVGO shows an IV Rank of 1, 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 41%. Read IV Rank alongside the catalyst score: it says how expensive AVGO options are, while the score says whether that price is justified by a scheduled event.

AVGO does not report again until 2026-09-02, so near-dated expiries avoid it.
