GE Aerospace is currently running 18.8% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against GE's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 28th percentile — on the quiet side for this stock, against a typical reading of 26.6%. 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.

GE is trading -19.5% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -21.6%, and the deepest was -64.7% in 2018. 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 -5.3% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 30th percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year GE closed higher on 51% of sessions, and it is currently 2 sessions into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 14 years of records, GE finished the month higher 7 of 14 times, with a median return of +0.9% and an average of +2.6%. Its strongest month historically has been February at +3.4% on average, its weakest March at -2.2%. 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: GE has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 43 of 3,268 sessions (1.3% of the time), with the largest gaps running +9.8% and -6.3%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

Across the last 3 dated reports on file, GE moved an average of 2.2% in the session after earnings, closing higher 1 of those 3 times, with a median move of -1.4% and a largest of -4.9%.

All figures computed from 3,269 daily closes between 2013-10-15 and 2026-10-14, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against GE's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
