Questions about MORN

What people ask.

Why is MORN on Broken Stocks?

MORN qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -47.1% from its rolling 252-day high of $313.94, set on 2025-06-27 — 321d ago.

Is MORN a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. MORN is down -47.1% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 321d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. MORN is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is MORN 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 MORN trading inside its 52-week range?

At $166.05, MORN sits 10.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($149.08) to its 52-week high ($316.71). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has MORN been declining?

The current 47.1% decline accrued over 321d, which annualizes to roughly -53.6% 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 MORN compare to its sector?

There are 89 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 41 Red, 29 Amber, 19 Watch, with 32 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -32.8% — MORN's decline is deeper than the sector median.

Does MORN'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 (2026-02-12) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
