Implied volatility
BG is currently trading with moderate implied volatility, broadly in line with other large-cap stocks. On the options we scanned that was around 32% implied volatility, and higher implied volatility means richer premiums and wider expected moves.
Options on BG currently price in about 32% implied volatility, versus roughly 38% the stock has actually realised over the past month. The two are roughly in line, so neither buying nor selling premium has a clear volatility edge here.
BG's IV Rank is 0/100: implied volatility sits 0% of the way between its 17-day low (32%) and high (41%), and is above 0% of recorded days. Premium is historically cheap, which favours net-debit strategies like long options and debit spreads.
Off that volatility, the options market is pricing a move of about ±$11.12 (±10%) in BG by 2026-09-18 — a range of roughly $102 to $125. Strikes inside that band hold most of the premium and see most of the action.
Across strikes, downside puts on BG trade at a higher implied volatility than upside calls — the market is paying up for crash protection. That skew favours selling put spreads or buying calls over symmetric trades.
BG insider trading activity (SEC Form 4)
Open-market insider transactions at BG over roughly the last six months, from SEC Form 4 filings. Open-market buys are the rarer, more telling signal — routine selling under pre-arranged plans is common, so read a net-selling figure with that in mind.
