Is it risky to sell options on PPG INDUSTRIES INC (PPG) right now?

For a 4-week expiry, PPG INDUSTRIES INC (PPG) carries an options catalyst-risk score of 83 out of 100 (HIGH). What pushes it there: an upcoming earnings report, 1 recent news item and 10 active legal filings, all landing inside the 4-week window. On TickerRisk's scale 70 and above is HIGH, so a known event is scheduled inside this window — selling premium on PPG here is a bet on that event rather than on time decay. The score measures scheduled event exposure, not which way the stock will move.

PPG shows an IV Rank of 9, 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 31%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on PPG.

The 2026-10-27 earnings report sits inside a standard monthly expiry for PPG, so implied volatility should stay bid into the date and drop sharply once it passes.

PPG INDUSTRIES INC (PPG) current implied volatility and IV Rank

PPG is trading at an IV Rank of 9 with implied volatility around 31%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 83/100. That is toward the bottom of its 12-month range, so premium is thin. Selling here pays poorly for the risk taken; if you expect a move, buying the move is the cheaper side.

PPG INDUSTRIES INC (PPG) next earnings date — 2026-10-27

The next PPG report lands on 2026-10-27 — about 4 days away — inside the window a typical monthly option would span. PPG's IV Rank is currently 9. 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.
