Questions about CPS
What people ask.
Why is CPS on Broken Stocks?
CPS qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -42.7% from its rolling 252-day high of $47.98, set on 2026-02-17 — 184d ago.
Is CPS a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. CPS is down -42.7% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 184d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. CPS is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is CPS 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 CPS trading inside its 52-week range?
At $27.49, CPS sits 15.9% of the way from its 52-week low ($23.62) to its 52-week high ($47.98). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has CPS been declining?
The current 42.7% decline accrued over 184d, which annualizes to roughly -84.7% 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 CPS compare to its sector?
There are 130 other Consumer Cyclical tickers on Broken Stocks: 53 Red, 50 Amber, 27 Watch, with 35 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -34.0% — CPS's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does CPS'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 (2026-08-05) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
