Otis Worldwide Corporation is currently running 26.4% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against OTIS's own 6 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 76th percentile — elevated for this stock, against a typical reading of 22.0%. 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.

OTIS is trading -37.8% below its running peak. Across 6 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -15.6%, and the deepest was -26.7% in 2022. 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 -15.1% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 3rd percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year OTIS closed higher on 47% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 6 years of records, OTIS finished the month higher 2 of 6 times, with a median return of -2.4% and an average of -0.8%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +5.0% on average, its weakest September at -3.5%. 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: OTIS has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 44 of 1,648 sessions (2.7% of the time), with the largest gaps running +9.8% and -8.0%. 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, OTIS moved an average of 1.5% in the session after earnings, closing higher 1 of those 3 times, with a median move of -0.9% and a largest of +2.3%.

All figures computed from 1,649 daily closes between 2020-03-19 and 2026-10-09, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against OTIS's own 7-year history, not a peer group or index.
