Questions about HE

What people ask.

Why is HE on Broken Stocks?

HE qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -22.4% from its rolling 252-day high of $17.38, set on 2026-02-06 — 111d ago.

Is HE a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. HE is down -22.4% 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 HE 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 HE trading inside its 52-week range?

At $13.49, HE sits 46.3% of the way from its 52-week low ($10.14) to its 52-week high ($17.38). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has HE been declining?

The current 22.4% decline accrued over 111d, which annualizes to roughly -73.7% 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 HE compare to its sector?

There are 10 other Utilities tickers on Broken Stocks: 4 Red, 2 Amber, 4 Watch, with 4 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -28.9% — HE's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does HE'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 (2026-05-08) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
