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

Protection is priced in the cheap band (2.28) — near-dated vol is priced 27% below far-dated, and implied vol sits in the 3th percentile of its own past year, measured against this name's own rolling 19-trading-day realized moves (485 overlapping windows). Fragility reads resilient (3.09): it is trading 8% above its hedge wall on a wall graded HIGH for reliability, and its realized-vol regime is stable.
