Questions about TM

What people ask.

Why is TM on Broken Stocks?

TM is held on the Amber List. Held on the Amber List: it last met the Amber List rules. Today it reads Watch; a tier moves down only after five consecutive scans below its rules.

Is TM a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. TM is down -20.8% 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 TM 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 TM trading inside its 52-week range?

At $194.61, TM sits 34.4% of the way from its 52-week low ($166.10) to its 52-week high ($248.90). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has TM been declining?

The current 20.8% decline accrued over 245d, which annualizes to roughly -31.0% 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 TM compare to its sector?

There are 411 other Consumer Cyclical tickers on Broken Stocks: 290 Red, 85 Amber, 36 Watch, with 243 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.6% — TM's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does TM's earnings date affect its tier?

No. Tiering uses decline depth and recency, bearish time-frame structure, and decline sigma. The earnings date on file (2026-08-04) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
