Questions about POWL
What people ask.
Why is POWL on Broken Stocks?
POWL qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -37.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $327.89, set on 2026-05-11 — 94d ago.
Is POWL a falling knife?
By the most common technical definition — a steep, recent breakdown from a fresh high — yes. POWL is down -37.8% from its 52-week high of $327.89, set 94d 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 POWL 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 POWL trading inside its 52-week range?
At $204.04, POWL sits 50.3% of the way from its 52-week low ($78.50) to its 52-week high ($328.00). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has POWL been declining?
The current 37.8% decline accrued over 94d, which annualizes to roughly -146.8% 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 POWL compare to its sector?
There are 123 other Industrials tickers on Broken Stocks: 54 Red, 37 Amber, 32 Watch, with 30 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -32.6% — POWL's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does POWL'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 (2026-08-03) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
