RISK ANALYSIS
FN Gamma Walls
FN Hedge Radar
Fragility reads high; protection is priced cheap. Neither axis is a forecast — this is where FN sits on protection cost vs. fragility today.
Protection is priced in the cheap band (2.54) — options are pricing vol 41% below what the stock has actually been realizing, and downside puts carry 2.5 IV points LESS than at-the-money, measured against this name's own rolling 17-trading-day realized moves (487 overlapping windows). Fragility reads fragile (6.62): it is trading 16% below its hedge wall on a wall graded MEDIUM for reliability, and its realized-vol regime is stable.
