VZ expected move by expiration

Expected move = price x at-the-money IV x the square root of (days to expiration / 365), a one standard deviation range. The straddle is the at-the-money call plus put, the market's own price for a move. Compare expected moves across stocks.

Expiration	IV	Expected move	1 SD range	Straddle
Nov 20, 20267 days	24.4%	±$1.57 (3.4%)	$44.79 to $47.93	$1.26
Dec 11, 202628 days	20.6%	±$2.64 (5.7%)	$43.72 to $49.00	$2.14
Jan 15, 202763 days	25.0%	±$4.82 (10.4%)	$41.54 to $51.18	$3.86
