Questions about BKE

What people ask.

Why is BKE on Broken Stocks?

BKE qualifies for the Watch on decline depth. It is down -24.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $56.73, set on 2025-09-15 — 339d ago.

Is BKE a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. BKE is down -24.8% 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 BKE 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 BKE trading inside its 52-week range?

At $42.64, BKE sits 9.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($40.73) to its 52-week high ($61.69). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has BKE been declining?

The current 24.8% decline accrued over 339d, which annualizes to roughly -26.7% 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 BKE 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% — BKE's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does BKE'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 (2026-08-21) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
