I'll look up Alphabet's option chain. Let me first get the current stock price for context and then pull the options data.Looking at the option chain, I can see the data is as of 2026-07-19. The near-the-money put around the 350-355 area (current stock price ~$352.50 based on the ATM put pricing) gives us a reference point. Let me now extract the relevant December 2026 and June 2027 OTM puts at least 10% below the current price.

10% below ~$352.50 ≈ $317 and below, so I'll focus on strikes ≤ $315.

Here are the main OTM put strikes for the two expirations:


GOOGL OTM Put Options (≥10% Below Spot ~$352.50)

$315 $14.05 $15.50 37% $25.00 $27.40 37%
$310 $12.95 $13.90 38% $23.70 $25.15 38%
$300 $10.30 $11.25 38% $19.10 $21.80 37%
$290 $7.70 $8.45 38% $16.95 $18.35 38%
$280 $5.85 $7.05 39% $14.25 $15.05 38%
$270 $4.40 $5.50 39% $11.00 $13.30 38%
$260 $3.25 $4.25 40% $9.75 $10.60 38%
$250 $2.62 $3.05 40% $7.90 $8.55 39%

Key observations:

  • IV is fairly flat across strikes and expirations, averaging ~38-40%, which is modest for GOOGL
  • Time decay is priced in efficiently — the June '27 puts are roughly 60-80% more expensive than the December '26 equivalents, consistent with ~6 extra months of theta
  • $315 strike (roughly 10.6% OTM): Dec puts at ~$14.70 mid vs Jun puts at ~$26.20 mid — about a $11.50 premium for 6 extra months
  • $300 strike (roughly 15% OTM): Dec at ~$10.80 mid vs Jun at ~$20.45 mid
  • $280 strike (roughly 20.6% OTM): Dec at ~$6.45 mid vs Jun at ~$14.65 mid — deeper OTM shows proportionally larger time premium
  • Open interest is generally healthy, particularly in the $300-$320 zone, indicating good liquidity for these downside hedges
