Is it risky to sell options on MICROSOFT CORP (MSFT) right now?
Over a 4-week expiry window, MICROSOFT CORP (MSFT) scores 66 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (MEDIUM). What pushes it there: an upcoming earnings report and 10 active legal filings, all landing inside the 4-week window. A mid-range score (45–69) means MSFT is neither clear nor obviously dangerous over this window — check which specific date is driving it before choosing a strike. The number reflects event exposure only.
MSFT shows an IV Rank of 36, 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 43%. Read IV Rank alongside the catalyst score: it says how expensive MSFT options are, while the score says whether that price is justified by a scheduled event.
MSFT reports on 2026-07-29. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.
