Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF
✦ Today's options flow
- Volume is thin across this chain today — there isn't enough flow yet to read much into the calls-vs-puts split.
Options-implied move vs. analyst target
The chain's longest listed expiration (Nov 20, 2026, 24 days out) implies 13.00% annualized vol near the money — a one-standard-deviation move to roughly $236.28–$252.58 by then.
No analyst target range on file to compare against.
Two different things on the same scale: the purple band is the options market's own near-term volatility pricing (statistical, 24 days out); the blue band is sell-side opinion on a roughly 12-month horizon. Neither is a forecast.
