Option trading volume was extremely active, with a total of 3.73 million contracts traded; the volume of call options exceeded that of put options, resulting in a put/call ratio of 0.74, whereas the usual level is around 0.58.

The 30-day implied volatility (IV30) has fallen by 2.02 to around 59.32, which is also below the 52-week median. This indicates that market expectations for the daily volatility of this stock are approximately $2.43.

After KGI Securities upgraded Intel's rating to "outperforming the market," the bearish/bullish skew widened further, indicating an increased demand from the market for downside protection.

The company announced its financial results after the close on October 29, 2026, and the options market had already factored in a volatility range of approximately 8.97% for the stock prior to that.
