Questions about KMB
What people ask.
Why is KMB on Broken Stocks?
KMB qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -20.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $136.17, set on 2025-08-20 — 365d ago.
Is KMB a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. KMB 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 KMB 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 KMB trading inside its 52-week range?
At $108.69, KMB sits 37.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($92.42) to its 52-week high ($136.36). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has KMB been declining?
The current 20.2% decline accrued over 365d, which annualizes to roughly -20.2% 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 KMB compare to its sector?
There are 44 other Consumer Defensive tickers on Broken Stocks: 21 Red, 14 Amber, 9 Watch, with 16 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -33.6% — KMB's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does KMB'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 (2026-08-04) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
