Full Hedge Radar

Fragility reads low; protection is priced cheap. Neither axis is a forecast — this is where PG sits on protection cost vs. fragility today.

Protection is priced in the cheap band (3.21) — downside puts carry 0.0 IV points more than at-the-money, and near-dated vol is priced 11% below far-dated, measured against this name's own rolling 20-trading-day realized moves (484 overlapping windows). Fragility reads resilient (3.65): its realized-vol regime is contracting, and it is trading 1% below its hedge wall on a wall graded HIGH for reliability.
