On Oct 13, analysts reported that Credo’s forward price‑to‑earnings ratio had dropped to 34.34 from a historical average of 138.77, attributing the improvement to revenue growth from high‑speed data‑center cables and optical components. The same day, concerns were raised about the sustainability of this earnings growth due to the company’s limited customer base. On Oct 8, Credo’s Chief Financial Officer Daniel W. Fleming sold 7,580 shares for $1,613,831, reducing his direct holdings to 492,208 shares, a transaction disclosed through a Form 4 filing with the SEC.

Behaviour On Record

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

vs 200-day average
+9.3%
Up days (1y)
49%

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd is currently running 74.6% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against CRDO's own 5 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 55th percentile — close to its own typical level, against a typical reading of 70.0%. 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.

CRDO is trading -35.0% below its running peak. Across 4 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -54.6%, and the deepest was -62.3% in 2023. 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 +9.3% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 26th percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year CRDO closed higher on 49% of sessions, and it is currently 3 sessions into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 5 years of records, CRDO finished the month higher 3 of 5 times, with a median return of +21.5% and an average of +12.4%. Its strongest month historically has been May at +34.2% on average, its weakest March at -9.0%. 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: CRDO has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 241 of 1,182 sessions (20.4% of the time), with the largest gaps running +8.1% and -8.8%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 1,183 daily closes between 2022-01-27 and 2026-10-14, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against CRDO's own 5-year history, not a peer group or index.
