Questions about HPK

What people ask.

Why is HPK on Broken Stocks?

HPK qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -42.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $11.87, set on 2025-06-13 — 335d ago.

Is HPK a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. HPK is down -42.8% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 335d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. HPK is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is HPK 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 HPK trading inside its 52-week range?

At $6.79, HPK sits 36.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($3.85) to its 52-week high ($12.00). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has HPK been declining?

The current 42.8% decline accrued over 335d, which annualizes to roughly -46.6% 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 HPK compare to its sector?

There are 19 other Energy tickers on Broken Stocks: 7 Red, 3 Amber, 9 Watch, with 7 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -27.2% — HPK's decline is deeper than the sector median.

Does HPK'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 (2026-05-06) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
