The structural read

What price action says about ROOT.

ROOT qualifies for the Red List on decline depth — down -55.2% from its rolling 252-day high. Past the 40% threshold, the deepest tier in the taxonomy.

Cross-confirmation: also showing 4/5 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 ROOT'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 1 (green), monthly 2U (green).

Earnings on file: 2026-02-25. Tiering is unaffected by earnings dates — listings reflect price structure only.

Questions about ROOT

What people ask.

Why is ROOT on Broken Stocks?

ROOT qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -55.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $134.00, set on 2025-07-18 — 368d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.

What does the Recovering badge mean for ROOT?

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 — ROOT 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 ROOT a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. ROOT is down -55.2% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 368d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. ROOT is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is ROOT 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 ROOT trading inside its 52-week range?

At $60.06, ROOT sits 15.7% of the way from its 52-week low ($40.91) to its 52-week high ($162.99). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has ROOT been declining?

The current 55.2% decline accrued over 368d, which annualizes to roughly -54.8% 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 ROOT compare to its sector?

There are 78 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 35 Red, 27 Amber, 16 Watch, with 20 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.6% — ROOT's decline is deeper than the sector median.

Does ROOT'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 (2026-02-25) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
