Q: Why is SSTK on Broken Stocks?

SSTK qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down 45.3% from its rolling 252-day high of 28.41 set on 2025-10-31, 209 days ago. Tiering is rules-based and reflects price action only — not company quality, management, or fundamentals.

Q: Is SSTK a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. SSTK is down 45.3% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 209 days ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. SSTK is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing. Tiering is rules-based and reflects price action only — not company quality, management, or fundamentals.
