ORCL Hedge Radar

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

Protection is priced in the cheap band (3.29) — downside puts carry 0.8 IV points LESS than at-the-money, and near-dated vol is priced 2% below far-dated, measured against this name's own rolling 21-trading-day realized moves (483 overlapping windows). Fragility reads neutral (4.7): it is trading 1% above its hedge wall on a wall graded HIGH for reliability, and its realized-vol regime is stable.
