Questions about FRPT

What people ask.

Why is FRPT on Broken Stocks?

FRPT qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -45.1% from its rolling 252-day high of $89.80, set on 2025-05-20 — 359d ago.

Is FRPT a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. FRPT is down -45.1% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 359d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. FRPT is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is FRPT 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 FRPT trading inside its 52-week range?

At $49.34, FRPT sits 6.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($46.76) to its 52-week high ($89.80). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has FRPT been declining?

The current 45.1% decline accrued over 359d, which annualizes to roughly -45.9% 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 FRPT compare to its sector?

There are 47 other Consumer Defensive tickers on Broken Stocks: 27 Red, 13 Amber, 7 Watch, with 11 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.1% — FRPT's decline is deeper than the sector median.

Does FRPT'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 (2026-02-23) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
