The structural read
What price action says about MDT.
MDT qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth — down -26.5% from its rolling 252-day high.
Cross-confirmation: also showing 3/5 bearish time frames.
Cross-confirmation: decline sigma also reads 7.5σ over 20 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 2D (red).
Earnings on file: 2026-06-03. Tiering is unaffected by earnings dates — listings reflect price structure only.

Questions about MDT
What people ask.
Why is MDT on Broken Stocks?
MDT qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -26.5% from its rolling 252-day high of $104.70, set on 2025-11-26 — 169d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.
What does the Recovering badge mean for MDT?
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 — MDT 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 MDT a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. MDT is down -26.5% 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 MDT 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 MDT trading inside its 52-week range?
At $76.97, MDT sits 0.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($77.16) to its 52-week high ($106.33). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has MDT been declining?
The current 26.5% decline accrued over 169d, which annualizes to roughly -57.2% 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 MDT 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% — MDT's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does MDT'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 (2026-06-03) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
