A higher percentile is simply a higher value (for P/E, more expensive on earnings — never "better"). Informational only.

Dividend coverage

Not assessed — last reported dividend predates the accounts. The most recent fiscal year in which MX reported a dividend payment is FY2010, while its reported financial statements run through FY2025. Coverage is therefore not assessed for the latest year — an FY2010 ratio would not describe MX today.

Coverage is derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures, comparing dividends paid against net income and free cash flow for the SAME fiscal year. It is not shown here because the latest fiscal year with a reported dividend payment (FY2010) is older than the latest year of reported financial statements (FY2025), so any ratio would describe an out-of-date year.

How MagnaChip Semiconductor Corp looks technically

MagnaChip Semiconductor Corp (MX) is trading 28.8% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend. Its 50-day average crossed below its 200-day average about 29 trading days ago — a "death cross", a bearish long-term signal. A trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 22 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 32, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bearish about 9 trading days ago (its momentum flipped negative). It made a new 20-day low about 3 trading days ago. It is 73.8% below its highest point of the past year. Trading volume is unusually light — only about 35% of its 30-day average.

Position in its 14-day rangeit is trading near the bottom of its 14-day range ($2.49 to $3.79) — its "stochastic" reading is 7 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions.6.9

Bearish technical signals6 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bearish state: a "death cross" — its 50-day average is below its 200-day, trading below its 200-day average, a fresh 20-day low, MACD momentum is negative, lagging the market over 6 months, trading below the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast6 of 9

Trend (Ichimoku cloud)

Vs the Ichimoku cloudtrading 20% below the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-09-14 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established downtrend, with the band above acting as the level that would have to be cleared. The band itself is thick, spanning 19.5% of the share price, which is taken to mean a barrier that has held for a while and takes effort to cross.-20.1%

Volume-weighted price

Vs this year’s average price paidthe price is 48% below the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $4.98 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 198 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP.-48.2%
Vs the average paid since it last reportedthe price is 51% below the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-04-28 (its 8-K), so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water.

Wave structure

Its recent swings can be read as a three-part upward correction — the A-B-C shape chartists use for a pullback — now complete.

This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $4.33.

It is the only labelling that fits these swings, though its proportions are not the textbook ones.

This reading has stood for 11 trading days, since 2026-10-06.

reported quarterly holdings change (2026-03-31 → 2026-06-30): 0 new, 3 increased, 1 decreased, 0 exited. Change counts cover only managers that filed 13F reports in BOTH quarters, derived between two quarter-end snapshots — not same-day trades; a single manager is never said to have "bought" or "sold".

Institutional holdings are quarter-end long positions reported on SEC Form 13F-HR, filed up to 45 days after the quarter ends — they are delayed, are not real-time trades, exclude short positions and most non-US securities, and are not investment advice. Any increase/decrease is a reported change between two quarterly snapshots, not a same-day purchase or sale. These are quarter-end snapshots from the 13F filings on SEC EDGAR, filed within 45 days — not real-time, and any change is a difference between two quarterly reports, not a same-day trade.

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-30 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
