Questions about UNG

What people ask.

Why is UNG on Broken Stocks?

UNG qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -37.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $17.03, set on 2026-01-30 — 161d ago.

Is UNG a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. UNG is down -37.8% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 161d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. UNG is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is UNG 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 UNG trading inside its 52-week range?

At $10.60, UNG sits 8.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($9.95) to its 52-week high ($18.12). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has UNG been declining?

The current 37.8% decline accrued over 161d, which annualizes to roughly -85.7% 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.
