Questions about YELP
What people ask.
Why is YELP on Broken Stocks?
YELP qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -48.9% from its rolling 252-day high of $41.22, set on 2025-05-15 — 364d ago.
Is YELP a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. YELP is down -48.9% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 364d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. YELP is still on the Red List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is YELP 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 YELP trading inside its 52-week range?
At $21.08, YELP sits 6.8% of the way from its 52-week low ($19.60) to its 52-week high ($41.22). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has YELP been declining?
The current 48.9% decline accrued over 364d, which annualizes to roughly -49.0% 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 YELP compare to its sector?
There are 33 other Communication Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 21 Red, 7 Amber, 5 Watch, with 7 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -43.5% — YELP's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does YELP'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.
