BULLISH
On Oct 7, Gaming and Leisure Properties experienced a sharp decline in its share price, a move that analysts described as a buying opportunity. The REIT’s stable master lease portfolio and its 8.7 % dividend yield were highlighted as attractive features that support a valuation of 9.12 times P/AFFO. Reporters noted that the current discount could offer upside potential, suggesting that the market had overreacted to short‑term volatility. The article emphasized the attractiveness of the dividend yield and the stability of the lease portfolio as reasons for the valuation assessment. No other developments were reported for that date.

Momentum has rolled over on Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc., which is what drives the bearish read. Earnings and guidance carry more weight than macro data at this capitalisation.

Behaviour On Record

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

Realized volatility (21d)
16.1% 34th pct

vs 200-day average

Up days (1y)
45%

Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. is currently running 16.1% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against GLPI's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 34th percentile — on the quiet side for this stock, against a typical reading of 18.8%. 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.

GLPI is trading -31.0% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -17.4%, and the deepest was -70.2% 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 -16.1% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 4th percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year GLPI closed higher on 45% of sessions, and it is currently 2 sessions into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, GLPI finished the month higher 6 of 13 times, with a median return of -0.6% and an average of +0.7%. Its strongest month historically has been May at +2.2% on average, its weakest September at -4.3%. 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: GLPI has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 130 of 3,262 sessions (4.0% of the time), with the largest gaps running +11.3% and -12.6%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 3,263 daily closes between 2013-10-14 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against GLPI's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
