Q: Why is MED on Broken Stocks?

MED qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down 30.7% from its rolling 252-day high of 15.46 set on 2025-07-10, 365 days ago. Tiering is rules-based and reflects price action only — not company quality, management, or fundamentals.

Q: Is MED a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. MED is down 30.7% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 365 days ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. MED is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing. Tiering is rules-based and reflects price action only — not company quality, management, or fundamentals.
