Questions about WD

What people ask.

Why is WD on Broken Stocks?

WD qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -39.6% from its rolling 252-day high of $87.71, set on 2025-10-24 — 202d ago.

Is WD a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. WD is down -39.6% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 202d 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 Amber 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 $52.97, WD sits 22.7% 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 39.6% decline accrued over 202d, which annualizes to roughly -71.6% 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 89 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 42 Red, 28 Amber, 19 Watch, with 32 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -32.8% — 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.
