Risk: To get a real sense of DLTR’s risk, check how it’s handled past market selloffs. It fell about 67% in the Dot-Com Bubble and dropped over 53% during the Global Financial Crisis. The Inflation Shock pushed it down around 40%, while the 2018 Correction and Covid Pandemic both saw dips north of 30%. So even with solid fundamentals, DLTR hasn’t been immune to steep declines when the market takes a nosedive. It shows that no matter how strong a stock looks, big selloffs can hit hard.
