Axon Enterprise Stock Plummets -12% With 8-Day Losing Streak
Axon Enterprise (AXON) stock hit day 8 of a continuous streak of days with losses, with cumulative losses over this period amounting to a -12% return. The company has lost about $5.6 Bil in value over the last 8 days, with its current market capitalization at about $42 Bil. The stock remains 10.6% below its value at the end of 2024. This compares with year-to-date returns of 12.9% for the S&P 500.
Axon’s recent streak saw shares pressured by a significant Q3 earnings per share miss, largely attributed to U.S. import tariffs squeezing margins. This profitability challenge, despite robust revenue growth, triggered analyst price target cuts and amplified investor concerns over the stock’s rich valuation.
What is the point? Sustained weakness can be more than noise. It often signals shifting sentiment or deeper concerns. A multi-day losing streak may warn of further downside, or present an opportunity to buy if fundamentals are intact. Our take: There is not much to fear in AXON stock given its overall Strong operating performance and financial condition. But given its Very High valuation, the stock appears Relatively Expensive (see Buy or Sell AXON).
