Questions about MAT
What people ask.
Why is MAT on Broken Stocks?
MAT qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -34.5% from its rolling 252-day high of $22.48, set on 2026-02-10 — 191d ago.
Is MAT a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. MAT is down -34.5% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 191d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. MAT is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is MAT 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 MAT trading inside its 52-week range?
At $14.72, MAT sits 20.4% of the way from its 52-week low ($12.73) to its 52-week high ($22.48). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has MAT been declining?
The current 34.5% decline accrued over 191d, which annualizes to roughly -65.9% 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 MAT compare to its sector?
There are 130 other Consumer Cyclical tickers on Broken Stocks: 54 Red, 49 Amber, 27 Watch, with 35 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -34.0% — MAT's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does MAT'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.
