The structural read
What price action says about MUX.
MUX qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth — down -31.8% from its rolling 252-day high.
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 MUX'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 weekly. Last bar types — daily 2U (green), weekly 2U (green), monthly 2U (green).

Questions about MUX
What people ask.
Why is MUX on Broken Stocks?
MUX qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -31.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $29.70, set on 2026-01-29 — 203d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.
What does the Recovering badge mean for MUX?
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 — MUX is still Amber 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 MUX a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. MUX is down -31.8% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 203d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. MUX is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is MUX 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 MUX trading inside its 52-week range?
At $20.27, MUX sits 52.5% of the way from its 52-week low ($9.87) to its 52-week high ($29.70). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has MUX been declining?
The current 31.8% decline accrued over 203d, which annualizes to roughly -57.2% 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 MUX compare to its sector?
There are 58 other Basic Materials tickers on Broken Stocks: 24 Red, 16 Amber, 18 Watch, with 16 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -33.5% — MUX's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does MUX'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.
