J.P. Morgan analysts put together a list of stocks that have cheap implied volatility according to their scoring percentage.
Bram Kaplan, head of Americas Equity Derivatives Strategy at J.P. Morgan, said in a note that he defines the cheap implied volatility candidates as stocks where the volatility score is less than 25%.
In addition, to calculate the volatility score, analysts take the average of the two-year percentile ranking of three-month implied volatility over the realized volatility to the S&P 500 (SP500), and the two-year percentile ranking of the three-month sector relative implied volatility over the realized volatility, he said.
