The structural read
What price action says about MELI.
MELI qualifies for the Red List on decline depth — down -24.6% from its rolling 252-day high. Past 30% with the high set inside the last four months — the recency clause that often precedes further breakdown.
Cross-confirmation: also showing 5/5 bearish time frames.
Alongside that decline, our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames — moderate or strong time-frame-continuity (TFC) alignment — so the ticker also carries a Recovering badge. The two readings coexist: the tier tells you how deep the damage is, the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. Recovering is not a buy signal; it's a structural read.
Broken Stocks stops here — it flags the structure, it doesn't build the upside case. Working out whether MELI's turn is investable is what our sister tool does: ConvictionEdge — triple-engine conviction research on names showing a recovery signal.
Upstream TFC read: strong alignment, current phase daily. Last bar types — daily 2U (green), weekly 2D (green), monthly 2U (green).

Questions about MELI
What people ask.
Why is MELI on Broken Stocks?
MELI qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -24.6% from its rolling 252-day high of $2,548.50, set on 2025-09-29 — 325d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.
What does the Recovering badge mean for MELI?
Recovering means our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames (moderate or strong time-frame continuity). It coexists with the decline tier — MELI is still Red List because the rolling-252-day decline hasn't healed, but a bullish setup has formed inside that decline. The two readings answer different questions: the tier tells you how deep the damage is; the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. It's not a buy recommendation.
Is MELI a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. MELI is down -24.6% 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 MELI 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 MELI trading inside its 52-week range?
At $1,921.96, MELI sits 40.5% of the way from its 52-week low ($1,495.00) to its 52-week high ($2,548.50). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has MELI been declining?
The current 24.6% decline accrued over 325d, which annualizes to roughly -27.6% 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 MELI compare to its sector?
There are 130 other Consumer Cyclical tickers on Broken Stocks: 53 Red, 50 Amber, 27 Watch, with 34 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -34.2% — MELI's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does MELI'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 (2026-08-05) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
