Questions about ESRT
What people ask.
Why is ESRT on Broken Stocks?
ESRT qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -36.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $8.62, set on 2025-06-20 — 328d ago.
Is ESRT a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. ESRT is down -36.8% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 328d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. ESRT is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is ESRT 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 ESRT trading inside its 52-week range?
At $5.45, ESRT sits 14.9% of the way from its 52-week low ($4.87) to its 52-week high ($8.76). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has ESRT been declining?
The current 36.8% decline accrued over 328d, which annualizes to roughly -41.0% 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 ESRT compare to its sector?
There are 28 other Real Estate tickers on Broken Stocks: 12 Red, 14 Amber, 2 Watch, with 4 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -28.2% — ESRT's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does ESRT'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 (2026-04-29) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
