Questions about YELP

What people ask.

Why is YELP on Broken Stocks?

YELP qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -41.1% from its rolling 252-day high of $39.58, set on 2025-05-29 — 364d ago.

Is YELP a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. YELP is down -41.1% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 364d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. YELP is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is YELP 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 YELP trading inside its 52-week range?

At $23.30, YELP sits 18.5% of the way from its 52-week low ($19.60) to its 52-week high ($39.58). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has YELP been declining?

The current 41.1% decline accrued over 364d, which annualizes to roughly -41.2% 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 YELP compare to its sector?

There are 41 other Communication Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 28 Red, 6 Amber, 7 Watch, with 17 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -45.9% — YELP's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does YELP'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.
