The structural read

What price action says about CRNX.

CRNX qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth — down -33.9% from its rolling 252-day high.

Cross-confirmation: also showing 3/5 bearish time frames.

Cross-confirmation: decline sigma also reads 4.0σ over 10 bars.

Alongside that decline, our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames — moderate or strong time-frame-continuity (TFC) alignment — so the ticker also carries a Recovering badge. The two readings coexist: the tier tells you how deep the damage is, the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. Recovering is not a buy signal; it's a structural read.

Upstream TFC read: moderate alignment, current phase daily. Last bar types — daily 2U (green), weekly 2D (green), monthly 3 (red).

Earnings on file: 2026-02-26. Tiering is unaffected by earnings dates — listings reflect price structure only.

Questions about CRNX

What people ask.

Why is CRNX on Broken Stocks?

CRNX qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -33.9% from its rolling 252-day high of $57.99, set on 2026-01-05 — 129d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.

What does the Recovering badge mean for CRNX?

Recovering means our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames (moderate or strong time-frame continuity). It coexists with the decline tier — CRNX is still Amber List because the rolling-252-day decline hasn't healed, but a bullish setup has formed inside that decline. The two readings answer different questions: the tier tells you how deep the damage is; the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. It's not a buy recommendation.

Is CRNX a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. CRNX is down -33.9% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 129d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. CRNX is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is CRNX 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 CRNX trading inside its 52-week range?

At $38.31, CRNX sits 41.9% of the way from its 52-week low ($24.10) to its 52-week high ($57.99). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has CRNX been declining?

The current 33.9% decline accrued over 129d, which annualizes to roughly -95.9% 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 CRNX compare to its sector?

There are 182 other Healthcare tickers on Broken Stocks: 93 Red, 42 Amber, 47 Watch, with 54 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -35.8% — CRNX's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does CRNX'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.
