What price action says about CSTM.
CSTM qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth — down -31.1% from its rolling 252-day high.

Questions about CSTM
What people ask.
Why is CSTM on Broken Stocks?
CSTM qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -31.1% from its rolling 252-day high of $36.99, set on 2026-06-02 — 136d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.
What does the Recovering badge mean for CSTM?
Recovering means our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames (moderate or strong time-frame continuity). It coexists with the decline tier — CSTM is still Amber List because a price-structure rule still triggers, but a bullish setup has formed inside that decline. The two readings answer different questions: the tier reflects the most severe triggered rule; the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. It's not a buy recommendation.
Is CSTM a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. CSTM is down -31.1% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 136d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. CSTM is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is CSTM 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 CSTM trading inside its 52-week range?
At $25.47, CSTM sits 50.8% of the way from its 52-week low ($13.58) to its 52-week high ($36.99). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has CSTM been declining?
The current 31.1% decline accrued over 136d, which annualizes to roughly -83.5% 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 CSTM compare to its sector?
There are 359 other Basic Materials tickers on Broken Stocks: 234 Red, 83 Amber, 42 Watch, with 145 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.7% — CSTM's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does CSTM's earnings date affect its tier?
No. Tiering uses decline depth and recency, bearish time-frame structure, and decline sigma. The earnings date on file (2026-07-29) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
