Questions about LOPE

What people ask.

Why is LOPE on Broken Stocks?

LOPE qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -32.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $223.04, set on 2025-10-24 — 324d ago.

Is LOPE a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. LOPE is down -32.2% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 324d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. LOPE is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is LOPE 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 LOPE trading inside its 52-week range?

At $151.20, LOPE sits 19.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($134.27) to its 52-week high ($223.04). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has LOPE been declining?

The current 32.2% decline accrued over 324d, which annualizes to roughly -36.3% 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 LOPE compare to its sector?

There are 86 other Consumer Defensive tickers on Broken Stocks: 43 Red, 26 Amber, 17 Watch, with 6 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -33.4% — LOPE's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does LOPE'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 (2026-07-30) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
