You own Coeur Mining (CDE), and on September 23 the stock fell 5.7% while the S&P 500 slipped 0.7%. The worry is whether to sell before it falls further. Here is what is known. Coeur's last quarterly report showed record revenue, driven in large part by two recently acquired mines, New Afton and Rainy River. The real question is whether those two mines catch up to plan, and what you could lose while they try.
Everpure (P) grew revenue 38% from a year earlier in fiscal Q2 2027, and management expects that pace to last for some time. The stock costs 144.1 times its past year of earnings, against 22.4 for the S&P 500. Two things must hold. Customers must keep paying far higher prices, and Everpure must keep getting parts at costs it can absorb. Is the cost of Everpure's parts already climbing.
Expedia (EXPE) stock fell 7.7% on September 23, leaving it about 24% below its August 24 high of $339. Yet the company's latest results beat its forecast, and over the past 12 months the stock has still returned about 17%, roughly in line with the S&P 500. So how far could Expedia go in a real market shock.
Booking (BKNG) turns 35% of its sales into operating profit, against 18.6% for the S&P 500. Yet its stock lost 29% in the year to September 23, 2026, while the index returned 13%. Booking expects third-quarter 2026 revenue to grow just 4% to 6%. The question you face is whether that slower growth is a pause or Booking's new pace. Start with what the current price already asks you to pay.
Investing.com -- S&P Global Ratings has upgraded AZZ Incorporated's (NYSE:AZZ) issuer credit rating to ‘BB’ from ‘BB-’, citing accelerated debt repayment and sustained improvements in the company's leverage profile. The rating agency also raised its issue-level rating on the company’s senior secured debt to ‘BB+’ from ‘BB’, while maintaining a ‘2’ recovery rating.
McDonald's (MCD) has a pricing problem in the United States, its second-largest business. Its value menu of 10 items for under $3 each has not delivered what management expected. The shares lost 19.3% over the past year (as of September 23, 2026), while the S&P 500 returned 13%. The fix is not settled, because it depends on franchisees charging the prices McDonald's recommends.
Airbnb (ABNB) shares fell 21% in the month to September 23, while the S&P 500 rose 0.8%. A $10,000 holding at the start of that month was worth about $7,860 at the end. Airbnb's own news over those weeks does not explain it, so the fall needs a different explanation.
If you own CVS Health (CVS), the primary focus shifts from 2026 execution toward potential headwind variables heading into 2027. Management raised its 2026 earnings outlook on its fiscal Q2 2026 call in August. It also gave an early read on 2027, a quarter sooner than usual. One warning in that read came with no number. Over the past three months, the shares lost 15.2%, while the S&P 500 gained 5.0%. What is the 2027 problem CVS would not put a number on.
Palantir Technologies (PLTR) stock has climbed 10.0% over the last five trading days, while the S&P 500 rose 2.0%. A run like that invites you to chase it. But one week is not the question. The question is what Palantir does to your money when the market moves, because it travels further than the index both ways and further still on the way down.
Microsoft's next phase of growth may depend less on new customers than on serving the ones it has. The stock has run hard, returning 37% over three months against 5.0% for the S&P 500. At a market value of about $3.7 trillion, any new business must be large to move the shares. Will new data center capacity arrive fast enough to serve the demand Microsoft (MSFT) has already won.
A $10,000 holding in Joby Aviation (JOBY) a year ago is now worth about $3,940. The S&P 500 returned 16.5% over the same year. Even after that fall, Joby’s valuation reflects market expectations for electric air taxis that have not yet entered commercial passenger service. Is buying Joby now too early, before those air taxis carry their first passengers.
Netflix (NFLX) stock trades near $71, about 43% below its high of the past year, and it lost 6.6% in the past week. The market did not fall with it: The S&P 500 returned 16.5% over the past twelve months. So without any shock at all, Netflix is already down more than its average fall in past market shocks. What would a real crash add.
Even if a company is profitable, it doesn’t always mean it’s a great investment. Some struggle to maintain growth, face looming threats, or fail to reinvest wisely, limiting their future potential.
Carnival Corporation (CCL) threw off free cash worth 9.7% of its market value over the last twelve months, more than twice the 4.4% median for an S&P 500 company. A yield that high usually means a bargain or a business the market expects to shrink. Carnival is not that simple. The cash is real, and a large share of it belongs to its lenders.
(Updates with market moves at the end of the day, and other changes, if any.) The Nasdaq Composit
SanDisk (SNDK) has run up 23.3% over the last five trading days, while the S&P 500 added 2.4%. A move like that in a NAND maker pulls money in. But next week's price is not the question. What matters is what owning the stock does to your money when the market moves, because SanDisk travels much further than the index in both directions.
Mortgage applications in the US fell last week as a key 30-year rate crossed 7% to reach the highest
Amid rising business activity, U.S. companies this year have grown more pessimistic about future inflation.
US bond yields surged Wednesday to reclaim their highest levels in nearly two decades after new data depicted strong business activity and intensifying inflation concerns.
(Updates with latest market prices and developments.) US benchmark stock indexes fell intraday an
Sept 23 (Reuters) - Mounting inflation pressures and a strengthening economy look to be pushing the Federal Reserve towards an interest-rate hike on the eve of critical national elections, with
Verizon Communications (VZ) trades at about 12 times earnings, against an S&P 500 median of 22.4. A discount that wide usually follows a collapse. Not here. The stock returned 14.1% over the past twelve months, behind the index's 17.9%, and management has raised parts of its 2026 guidance in two straight quarters. So is this a good business on sale or a fair price for a company that has stopped growing.
Walt Disney (DIS) owns theme parks and streaming services. The stock costs 21.8 times its earnings of the past year. The S&P 500 is at 22.6 times. So you pay less than the market for these businesses. That case only pays off if two things are both true. Disney's latest earnings call gave a reason to doubt the first. What did management say about ad prices.
Comcast (CMCSA) trades near $22, about 29% below its 52-week high, and the market has not been falling with it. The S&P 500 returned close to 18% over the past year, while Comcast lost about 21%. The company is in the middle of a broadband pivot that it says is holding its own results down. So the question is not how hard Comcast drops in a crisis. It is how long it stays down.
Major US stock market indexes were slightly lower in Wednesday's premarket trading as investors focu
D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) trades near $17.50, about 61% below the high it set inside the past year. Nothing in the market broke to do that. The S&P 500 returned close to 18% over the same twelve months. The stock has already fallen a shock-sized amount without a shock, which is what makes the next leg hard to size.
S&P Global will release on Wednesday its preliminary September Purchasing Managers' Indices (PMIs) for the United States.
S&P Global (SPGI) is in focus after highlighting rapid uptake of its AI tools, with 500 customers using model context protocol connectors and a very large jump in data usage through APIs and large language model calls. S&P Global’s recent AI push comes at a more challenging time for the stock, with the share price down 6.7% over the past month and 21.5% year to date. A 1-year total shareholder return decline of 13.6% contrasts with a positive 3-year total shareholder return of 19.7%, which...
PG&E (PCG) trades at about $12.94, the bottom of its 52-week range and about 32% below its high. Over the past twelve months it lost 12.2% while the S&P 500 gained 18.5%. That gap did not come from a market crash. And in market shocks since 2007, its deepest fall includes a one-day break in PG&E's own price data.
