Questions about NSP

What people ask.

Why is NSP on Broken Stocks?

NSP qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -57.2% from its rolling 252-day high of $67.67, set on 2025-05-19 — 360d ago.

Is NSP a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. NSP is down -57.2% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 360d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. NSP is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is NSP 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 NSP trading inside its 52-week range?

At $28.93, NSP sits 14.3% of the way from its 52-week low ($18.57) to its 52-week high ($91.12). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has NSP been declining?

The current 57.2% decline accrued over 360d, which annualizes to roughly -58.0% 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 NSP compare to its sector?

There are 119 other Industrials tickers on Broken Stocks: 60 Red, 22 Amber, 37 Watch, with 23 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -32.5% — NSP's decline is deeper than the sector median.

Does NSP'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 (2026-02-10) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
