Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. is currently running 18.0% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against HST's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 18th percentile — unusually subdued by its own history, against a typical reading of 24.8%. 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.

HST is trading -10.8% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -23.8%, and the deepest was -48.2% in 2020. 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 +5.6% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 68th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year HST closed higher on 53% of sessions, and it is currently 2 sessions into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, HST finished the month higher 6 of 13 times, with a median return of -0.1% and an average of +1.0%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +4.6% on average, its weakest June at -2.5%. 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: HST has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 179 of 3,266 sessions (5.5% of the time), with the largest gaps running +16.0% and -12.8%. 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, HST moved an average of 3.0% in the session after earnings, closing higher 0 of those 3 times, with a median move of -1.9% and a largest of -6.2%.

All figures computed from 3,267 daily closes between 2013-10-14 and 2026-10-09, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against HST's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
