Questions about GDXJ

What people ask.

Why is GDXJ on Broken Stocks?

GDXJ qualifies for the Watch on decline depth. It is down -20.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $157.49, set on 2026-03-02 — 73d ago.

Is GDXJ a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. GDXJ is down -20.2% from its 52-week high, which qualifies for the Watch tier but is shallower than the falling-knife pattern. It's an early-stage decline rather than a sharp breakdown.

Is GDXJ 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 GDXJ trading inside its 52-week range?

At $125.67, GDXJ sits 68.2% of the way from its 52-week low ($57.46) to its 52-week high ($157.49). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has GDXJ been declining?

The current 20.2% decline accrued over 73d, which annualizes to roughly -101.0% 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.
