Questions about WD
What people ask.
Why is WD on Broken Stocks?
WD qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -41.9% from its rolling 252-day high of $86.51, set on 2025-10-24 — 259d ago.
Is WD a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. WD is down -41.9% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 259d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. WD is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is WD 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 WD trading inside its 52-week range?
At $50.23, WD sits 16.9% of the way from its 52-week low ($42.12) to its 52-week high ($90.00). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has WD been declining?
The current 41.9% decline accrued over 259d, which annualizes to roughly -59.0% 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 WD compare to its sector?
There are 75 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 34 Red, 23 Amber, 18 Watch, with 28 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.3% — WD's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does WD'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 (2026-02-26) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
