NextEra Energy, Inc. is currently running 17.6% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against NEE's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 45th percentile — close to its own typical level, against a typical reading of 18.6%. 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.

NEE is trading -20.3% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -15.7%, and the deepest was -43.0% in 2023. 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 -10.5% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 6th percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year NEE closed higher on 51% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 14 years of records, NEE finished the month higher 12 of 14 times, with a median return of +4.5% and an average of +3.6%. Its strongest month historically has been October at +3.6% on average, its weakest September 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: NEE has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 41 of 3,268 sessions (1.3% of the time), with the largest gaps running +5.4% and -5.8%. 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, NEE moved an average of 0.8% in the session after earnings, closing higher 1 of those 3 times, with a median move of -0.8% and a largest of -1.0%.
