ADI Hedge Radar

Neither score is at an extreme today. Neither axis is a forecast — this is where ADI sits on protection cost vs. fragility today.

Protection is priced in the fair band (4.03) — downside puts carry 1.3 IV points more than at-the-money, and near-dated vol is priced 4% below far-dated, measured against this name's own rolling 20-trading-day realized moves (484 overlapping windows). Fragility reads resilient (2.38): its realized-vol regime is contracting, and it is trading 4% above its hedge wall on a wall graded HIGH for reliability.
