Questions about HLI
What people ask.
Why is HLI on Broken Stocks?
HLI qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -28.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $210.28, set on 2025-09-23 — 233d ago.
Is HLI a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. HLI is down -28.2% 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 HLI 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 HLI trading inside its 52-week range?
At $150.93, HLI sits 19.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($136.68) to its 52-week high ($211.78). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has HLI been declining?
The current 28.2% decline accrued over 233d, which annualizes to roughly -44.2% 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 HLI compare to its sector?
There are 89 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 41 Red, 29 Amber, 19 Watch, with 32 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -32.9% — HLI's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does HLI'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 (2026-01-28) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
