Questions about RWT

What people ask.

Why is RWT on Broken Stocks?

RWT qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -22.0% from its rolling 252-day high of $6.74, set on 2026-02-12 — 91d ago.

Is RWT a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. RWT is down -22.0% 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 RWT 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 RWT trading inside its 52-week range?

At $5.26, RWT sits 25.3% of the way from its 52-week low ($4.68) to its 52-week high ($6.97). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has RWT been declining?

The current 22.0% decline accrued over 91d, which annualizes to roughly -88.2% 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 RWT compare to its sector?

There are 28 other Real Estate tickers on Broken Stocks: 11 Red, 15 Amber, 2 Watch, with 4 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -28.6% — RWT's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does RWT'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 (2026-02-11) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
