What Is Stock-Specific Risk If The Market Crashes?

Airbnb isn’t immune to big hits. It plunged about 14% during the Covid sell-off and took a much steeper fall, nearly 62%, in the inflation shock of 2022. Even with strong fundamentals and growth potential, these drops show the stock can still take a serious beating when conditions sour. It’s a reminder that no matter the background, volatility is part of the ride.

But the risk is not limited to major market crashes. Stocks fall even when markets are in good shape – think events like earnings, business updates, outlook changes. Read ABNB Dip Buyer Analyses to see how the stock has recovered from sharp dips in the past.
