Questions about AS
What people ask.
Why is AS on Broken Stocks?
AS qualifies for the Watch on decline depth. It is down -23.9% from its rolling 252-day high of $42.76, set on 2026-02-20 — 181d ago.
Is AS a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. AS is down -23.9% from its 52-week high, which qualifies for the Watch tier but is shallower than the falling-knife pattern. It's an early-stage decline rather than a sharp breakdown.
Is AS a buy?
Broken Stocks does not issue buy or sell recommendations. The list is a rules-based technical warning system. It tracks structural decline depth and recency — not company quality, management, fundamentals, or news. Always do your own research and consult a licensed advisor.
Where is AS trading inside its 52-week range?
At $32.53, AS sits 26.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($28.92) to its 52-week high ($42.76). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has AS been declining?
The current 23.9% decline accrued over 181d, which annualizes to roughly -48.2% per year. Annualized pace is a sanity check — a 30% decline in three months is a different signal than a 30% decline over two years.
How does AS compare to its sector?
There are 130 other Consumer Cyclical tickers on Broken Stocks: 54 Red, 50 Amber, 26 Watch, with 35 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -34.2% — AS's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does AS's earnings date affect its tier?
No. Tiering is decided purely by decline depth and recency of the rolling-high date. The earnings date on file (2026-05-19) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
