Questions about SKWD

What people ask.

Why is SKWD on Broken Stocks?

SKWD qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -30.4% from its rolling 252-day high of $65.05, set on 2025-06-02 — 346d ago.

Is SKWD a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. SKWD is down -30.4% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 346d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. SKWD is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is SKWD 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 SKWD trading inside its 52-week range?

At $45.28, SKWD sits 12.5% of the way from its 52-week low ($42.45) to its 52-week high ($65.05). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has SKWD been declining?

The current 30.4% decline accrued over 346d, which annualizes to roughly -32.1% 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 SKWD compare to its sector?

There are 89 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 42 Red, 28 Amber, 19 Watch, with 32 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -32.9% — SKWD's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does SKWD'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 (2026-02-23) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
