Kimberly-Clark Corporation is currently running 35.1% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against KMB's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 96th percentile — an extreme by its own standards, against a typical reading of 16.8%.

KMB is trading -31.5% below its running peak. Across 13 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -18.5%, and the deepest was -32.3% in 2025. 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 +5.5% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 76th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year KMB closed higher on 49% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a rising streak.

On November specifically: over 13 years of records, KMB finished the month higher 11 of 13 times, with a median return of +3.7% and an average of +3.9%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +3.9% on average, its weakest September at -3.4%.

Overnight risk is measurable too: KMB has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 35 of 3,267 sessions (1.1% of the time), with the largest gaps running +11.0% and -9.1%.

Across the last 3 dated reports on file, KMB moved an average of 1.6% in the session after earnings, closing higher 1 of those 3 times, with a median move of -1.3% and a largest of -2.7%.

All figures computed from 3,268 daily closes between 2013-11-06 and 2026-11-04, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against KMB's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
