Questions about HWKN

What people ask.

Why is HWKN on Broken Stocks?

HWKN qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -28.1% from its rolling 252-day high of $186.15, set on 2025-10-06 — 277d ago.

Is HWKN a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. HWKN is down -28.1% 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 HWKN 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 HWKN trading inside its 52-week range?

At $133.76, HWKN sits 23.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($117.98) to its 52-week high ($186.15). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has HWKN been declining?

The current 28.1% decline accrued over 277d, which annualizes to roughly -37.0% 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 HWKN compare to its sector?

There are 75 other Basic Materials tickers on Broken Stocks: 45 Red, 18 Amber, 12 Watch, with 14 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -38.3% — HWKN's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does HWKN'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 (2026-05-13) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
