Questions about WSM
What people ask.
Why is WSM on Broken Stocks?
WSM qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -21.5% from its rolling 252-day high of $221.12, set on 2026-02-20 — 83d ago.
Is WSM a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. WSM is down -21.5% 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 WSM 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 WSM trading inside its 52-week range?
At $173.65, WSM sits 47.4% of the way from its 52-week low ($130.07) to its 52-week high ($222.00). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has WSM been declining?
The current 21.5% decline accrued over 83d, which annualizes to roughly -94.5% 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 WSM compare to its sector?
There are 128 other Consumer Cyclical tickers on Broken Stocks: 59 Red, 43 Amber, 26 Watch, with 19 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -35.3% — WSM's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does WSM'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 (2026-03-18) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
