How The Streak Compares With The Market
Over the same 10 trading days, the S&P 500 returned -3.2% including dividends, so the slide is mostly HubSpot’s own story rather than the market’s. Over the past three months the stock is down 7.1%, a window that includes the streak; over the other 53 sessions of that window it was up 25.5%.
Is The Business As Weak As The Stock?
On the fundamentals, revenue grew 20.1% over the last twelve months, against a median of 17.9% for S&P 500 Information Technology stocks; its operating margin is 5.4%, versus a median of 21.6%; and the stock trades at 46.5 times trailing earnings against a median of 27.9. The read is mixed: revenue growth above the median on one side, margins below the median and a multiple well above the median on the other.
