KeyCorp is currently running 20.4% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against KEY's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 19th percentile — unusually subdued by its own history, against a typical reading of 27.0%. 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.
KEY is trading -19.9% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -22.0%, and the deepest was -58.4% 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 +0.9% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 42nd percentile — close to the gap it normally carries. Over the past year KEY closed higher on 49% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a falling streak.
On September specifically: over 14 years of records, KEY finished the month higher 4 of 14 times, with a median return of -2.0% and an average of -0.9%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +7.4% on average, its weakest March at -7.2%. 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: KEY has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 164 of 3,268 sessions (5.0% of the time), with the largest gaps running +9.3% and -8.2%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.
All figures computed from 3,269 daily closes between 2013-09-16 and 2026-09-15, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against KEY's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
