My campaigns had stable ad rank for weeks, but now I’m pushed down to lower positions. QS is okay, CTR didn’t change much. Why would ad rank fall suddenly?

Check auction insights, maybe a competitor boosted their bids.

You can also, check the auto-apply settings for you ad, sometime a change there, can have this kind of results.

Even small QS changes can drop ad rank, check relevancy scores again.

Try raising bids slightly to test if it’s just competition pressure.

Look at extensions — missing sitelinks or callouts can hurt rank.

Sometimes Google updates algo and reshuffles rankings, it can be temporary.

Could be increased competition or lower auction-time relevance—try boosting your bids a bit and refreshing your ad copy to stay competitive.

It could be increased competition or even slight changes in your bid or ad relevance—Google’s auction is always shifting, so even small changes can affect your position.
