Genuine Parts Company's volatility is measured using two key metrics. The RV Ratio compares realized volatility (ORATS HV 20d) to implied volatility (IV 30d). When the RV Ratio drops below 0.85, realized movement is well below what options are pricing — the sweet spot for premium sellers. VRP (Volatility Risk Premium) measures the gap between IV and HV in percentage points — positive VRP means options are overpriced relative to actual movement. Current RV Ratio: 0.73.
Genuine Parts Company's snapshot: IV Rank 41% (average premiums), VRP +10.1pp (options overpriced), RV Ratio 0.73 (calming volatility). These three metrics work together — IV Rank shows historical context, VRP shows current overpricing, and RV Ratio shows the volatility trend. See the IV Analysis page for peer comparisons and deeper breakdown.

For Genuine Parts Company, current conditions favor premium sellers, but all options trades carry significant risk — always size positions so no single trade risks more than 1-3% of your account. Use the Strategy Builder to model worst-case scenarios before entering.
Genuine Parts Company's Volatility Risk Premium (VRP) is +10.1pp, meaning implied volatility exceeds realized volatility by that amount. A positive VRP indicates options are overpriced relative to actual stock movement — this is the statistical edge premium sellers seek.
Based on Yang-Zhang realized volatility, Genuine Parts Company has a 1-day expected move of ±$2.71 (±2.5%) and a 5-day expected move of ±$6.07 (±5.7%). This means the stock is expected to trade between $101 and $113 over the next week with approximately 68% probability.
Higher RV Ratio (closer to 1.0) means IV barely exceeds RV, resulting in slimmer VRP edge. Lower RV Ratio = wider gap between IV and actual movement = stronger seller edge.
