Dumping

Categories: Investing, Stocks, Bonds, Trading

You lost faith. You lost confidence. You lost hope. The company was supposed to print $1.10 in earnings this quarter—but they didn't. They only printed 97 cents and guided lower. The stock is now being dumped, as it craters from $79 to $50, and falling fast.

Investors are, yes, dumping it. And for many whose careers will be lost on the big bet they took being long this stock, they'll also need new panties. Different dumping, but equally as bad.
