Questions about USFD
What people ask.
Why is USFD on Broken Stocks?
USFD qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -20.5% from its rolling 252-day high of $102.13, set on 2026-02-12 — 105d ago.
Is USFD a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. USFD is down -20.5% 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 USFD 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 USFD trading inside its 52-week range?
At $81.15, USFD sits 35.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($69.88) to its 52-week high ($102.13). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has USFD been declining?
The current 20.5% decline accrued over 105d, which annualizes to roughly -71.3% 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 USFD compare to its sector?
There are 54 other Consumer Defensive tickers on Broken Stocks: 33 Red, 13 Amber, 8 Watch, with 29 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -35.7% — USFD's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does USFD'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 (2026-05-07) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
