Questions about POET
What people ask.
Why is POET on Broken Stocks?
POET qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -53.4% from its rolling 252-day high of $20.81, set on 2026-05-14 — 48d ago.
Is POET a falling knife?
By the most common technical definition — a steep, recent breakdown from a fresh high — yes. POET is down -53.4% from its 52-week high of $20.81, set 48d ago. That combination of depth (past the 30% Amber threshold) and recency (high set inside the last 120 days) is the textbook falling-knife pattern. Whether to try to catch it is a separate question — historically most attempts to bottom-pick continue lower before reversing. Broken Stocks flags the pattern; it does not recommend buying or selling.
Is POET 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 POET trading inside its 52-week range?
At $9.70, POET sits 34.4% of the way from its 52-week low ($3.87) to its 52-week high ($20.81). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has POET been declining?
The current 53.4% decline accrued over 48d, which annualizes to roughly -406.1% 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 POET compare to its sector?
There are 194 other Technology tickers on Broken Stocks: 123 Red, 45 Amber, 26 Watch, with 83 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -41.0% — POET's decline is deeper than the sector median.
