Questions about SA
What people ask.
Why is SA on Broken Stocks?
SA qualifies for the Watch on decline depth. It is down -24.7% from its rolling 252-day high of $40.06, set on 2026-03-02 — 174d ago.
Is SA a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. SA is down -24.7% 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 SA 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 SA trading inside its 52-week range?
At $30.16, SA sits 58.9% of the way from its 52-week low ($15.98) to its 52-week high ($40.06). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has SA been declining?
The current 24.7% decline accrued over 174d, which annualizes to roughly -51.8% 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 SA compare to its sector?
There are 50 other Basic Materials tickers on Broken Stocks: 22 Red, 15 Amber, 13 Watch, with 14 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -33.8% — SA's decline is shallower than the sector median.
