Questions about BW
What people ask.
Why is BW on Broken Stocks?
BW qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -42.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $22.03, set on 2026-05-15 — 47d ago.
Is BW a falling knife?
By the most common technical definition — a steep, recent breakdown from a fresh high — yes. BW is down -42.2% from its 52-week high of $22.03, set 47d ago. That combination of depth (past the 30% Amber threshold) and recency (high set inside the last 120 days) is the textbook falling-knife pattern. Whether to try to catch it is a separate question — historically most attempts to bottom-pick continue lower before reversing. Broken Stocks flags the pattern; it does not recommend buying or selling.
Is BW 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 BW trading inside its 52-week range?
At $12.74, BW sits 56.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($0.87) to its 52-week high ($22.03). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has BW been declining?
The current 42.2% decline accrued over 47d, which annualizes to roughly -327.7% 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 BW compare to its sector?
There are 125 other Industrials tickers on Broken Stocks: 49 Red, 26 Amber, 50 Watch, with 39 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -30.2% — BW's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does BW'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 (2026-05-11) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
