Permian Resources Corporation Class A is currently running 36.2% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against PR's own 10 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 34th percentile — on the quiet side for this stock, against a typical reading of 44.5%. 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.

PR is trading -9.3% below its running peak. Across 9 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -43.8%, and the deepest was -95.4% 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 +14.5% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 66th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year PR closed higher on 55% of sessions, and it is currently 3 sessions into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 10 years of records, PR finished the month higher 5 of 10 times, with a median return of +0.7% and an average of +1.2%. Its strongest month historically has been April at +30.2% on average, its weakest March at -8.1%. 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: PR has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 370 of 2,602 sessions (14.2% of the time), with the largest gaps running +15.7% and -15.1%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 2,603 daily closes between 2016-04-15 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against PR's own 11-year history, not a peer group or index.
