Broadcom Inc. is currently running 32.1% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against AVGO's own 11 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 52nd percentile — close to its own typical level, against a typical reading of 31.5%. 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.

AVGO is trading -30.4% below its running peak. Across 11 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -26.3%, and the deepest was -46.9% in 2020. The current drawdown is already deeper than this stock's typical annual low point, which puts it in the part of its range where past recoveries began — and where past declines also continued.

Price sits -6.7% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 8th percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year AVGO closed higher on 49% of sessions, and it is currently 2 sessions into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 11 years of records, AVGO finished the month higher 8 of 11 times, with a median return of +2.6% and an average of +2.4%. Its strongest month historically has been December at +8.7% on average, its weakest March at -0.7%. 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: AVGO has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 101 of 2,696 sessions (3.7% of the time), with the largest gaps running +9.1% and -8.7%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 2,697 daily closes between 2016-02-02 and 2026-10-15, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against AVGO's own 11-year history, not a peer group or index.
