On Oct 7, Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ARWR) received FDA approval to include its drug plozasiran in the STAR pilot program, a pathway designed to expedite supplemental new drug applications. The program shortens the review timeline for supplemental indications of already approved drugs, potentially bringing plozasiran to patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia faster. The move signals strong regulatory confidence in the drug’s clinical data and could enhance ARWR’s competitive positioning in the lipid disorder market.

ARWR's technical picture is under pressure, with momentum working against price. Position sizing matters more than usual in a name this size, where volatility is structural.

Behaviour On Record

What ARWR's own history says about today's numbers

Realized volatility (21d)
63.2% 53rd pct
Below its peak
-31.0%
vs 200-day average
-13.9%
Up days (1y)
48%

Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals Inc. is currently running 63.2% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against ARWR's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 53rd percentile — close to its own typical level, against a typical reading of 61.2%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

ARWR is trading -31.0% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -51.0%, and the deepest was -84.7% in 2016. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits -13.9% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 33rd percentile — close to the gap it normally carries. Over the past year ARWR closed higher on 48% of sessions, and it is currently 4 sessions into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, ARWR finished the month higher 7 of 13 times, with a median return of +0.3% and an average of -1.7%. Its strongest month historically has been December at +10.3% on average, its weakest March at -10.6%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: ARWR has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 529 of 3,267 sessions (16.2% of the time), with the largest gaps running +21.1% and -15.5%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 3,268 daily closes between 2013-10-07 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against ARWR's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
