Questions about CDW
What people ask.
Why is CDW on Broken Stocks?
CDW qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -46.0% from its rolling 252-day high of $189.13, set on 2025-05-14 — 365d ago.
Is CDW a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. CDW is down -46.0% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 365d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. CDW is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is CDW 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 CDW trading inside its 52-week range?
At $102.16, CDW sits 0.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($112.98) to its 52-week high ($192.30). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has CDW been declining?
The current 46.0% decline accrued over 365d, which annualizes to roughly -46.0% 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 CDW compare to its sector?
There are 172 other Technology tickers on Broken Stocks: 118 Red, 36 Amber, 18 Watch, with 46 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -44.1% — CDW's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does CDW'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 (2026-02-04) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
