Questions about VSAT

What people ask.

Why is VSAT on Broken Stocks?

VSAT qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -36.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $93.03, set on 2026-07-01 — 107d ago.

Is VSAT a falling knife?

By the most common technical definition — a steep, recent breakdown from a fresh high — yes. VSAT is down -36.8% from its 52-week high of $93.03, set 107d ago. That combination of depth (past the 30% Amber threshold) and recency (high set inside the last 120 days) is the textbook falling-knife pattern. Whether to try to catch it is a separate question — the classification does not predict subsequent returns. Broken Stocks flags the pattern; it does not recommend buying or selling.

Is VSAT 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 VSAT trading inside its 52-week range?

At $58.83, VSAT sits 59.2% of the way from its 52-week low ($14.00) to its 52-week high ($89.79). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has VSAT been declining?

The current 36.8% decline accrued over 107d, which annualizes to roughly -125.5% 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 VSAT compare to its sector?

There are 598 other Technology tickers on Broken Stocks: 406 Red, 129 Amber, 63 Watch, with 236 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -42.1% — VSAT's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does VSAT'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 (2026-05-28) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
