Questions about MDT
What people ask.
Why is MDT on Broken Stocks?
MDT qualifies for the Watch on decline depth. It is down -27.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $104.70, set on 2025-11-26 — 183d ago.
Is MDT a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. MDT is down -27.8% 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 MDT 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 MDT trading inside its 52-week range?
At $75.57, MDT sits 0.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($77.16) to its 52-week high ($106.33). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has MDT been declining?
The current 27.8% decline accrued over 183d, which annualizes to roughly -55.4% 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 MDT compare to its sector?
There are 194 other Healthcare tickers on Broken Stocks: 89 Red, 47 Amber, 58 Watch, with 108 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.0% — MDT's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does MDT'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 (2026-06-03) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
