Least volatile (2% or less typical daily range)
A technical stock screen computed nightly from daily-close price history (market data). Selection is deterministic — a company appears only when its stored indicator meets the screen's rule; nothing is estimated.
343 companies in the catalog currently match this technical screen. Leading the list is AVANOS MEDICAL INC (AVNS): moves only about 0.0% of its price in a typical session (about $0.0014 a session) — its average true range over the last 14 sessions.

What is low volatility?
Average true range measures how far a stock travels in a normal session: the largest of the day's high-to-low range and the two distances from the previous close, averaged over 14 sessions and expressed against the current price. A low reading means the price simply does not move much from day to day. Across the companies we cover the median is about 4.1% and the calmest few per cent sit under 2%.
How do I read the “Least volatile (2% or less typical daily range)” screen?
This screen lists the calmest companies first. Two quite different things produce a very low reading and it is worth knowing which you are looking at. Some are large, mature businesses whose shares genuinely drift rather than swing. Others are companies subject to an agreed cash takeover: once a price is fixed by a deal, the shares pin themselves near it and the daily range collapses to almost nothing, which is why some names here look unnaturally still. Low volatility is not a measure of quality or safety — a company can be both calm and in decline — and nothing here is advice.

Data: daily-close price history, recomputed nightly. Every figure is shown with its as-of date on the company page; a company without enough price history for this indicator is excluded, never estimated.
41 covered companies were not evaluated for this screen because their price series end on or before 2026-10-05 (APGE, ATAI, BRR, CBC, CCRN, CPRX, CRNX, DBRG, DOMO, EA, ECHO, EEX, and 29 more), at least 3 trading sessions behind the 2026-10-08 session the rest of the catalog carries. A technical signal is a claim about the present, so it is not asserted from a series that stops before it. Those companies keep the readings they have on their own page, with the as-of date they were computed from. 10 covered companies were not evaluated for this screen (AKTS, AVB, BRCC, HAWK, INHD, MVIS, NRDY, SHAZ, SOLS, TSEOQ) because our price history for these companies shows an unadjusted split or scale break. Every indicator read from such a series is an artifact of that break rather than a fact about the company, so none of them is asserted here — which is why the same companies have no 1-year return on their own page either.
Last updated 2026-10-08 — this screen recomputes nightly from daily-close prices, so its members change over time.
