Why CHWY stock is down today

Chewy Inc A (CHWY) fell 5.27% to $19.97 in morning trading, marking a sharp decline driven by analyst downgrades and mixed earnings results. JPMorgan cut its rating to Neutral from Overweight and reduced its price target to $24 from $29, citing macroeconomic pressures and muted growth. Goldman Sachs also lowered its price target to $30 from $34. These moves followed the company’s second-quarter earnings report, which underwhelmed the market despite in-line results.

What Happened

The stock opened at $20.89, down 0.9% from the prior close, and continued to decline throughout the session. By 10:00 AM ET, it had dropped to a session low of $19.94. The move came after JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs adjusted their ratings and price targets in response to Chewy’s recent performance. The Fly reported that JPMorgan downgraded the stock to Neutral, while Seeking Alpha highlighted concerns over macroeconomic conditions and growth expectations. The Motley Fool noted that Chewy’s stock has fallen 50% from its 52-week high of $40.55 and has lost 10.9% over the last eight sessions.

What The Data Shows

The stock is trading at a price-to-earnings ratio of 32.6, with a net margin of 2.1% and a beta of 1.42. Revenue has grown 5.9% in the trailing twelve months, but the recent earnings report failed to excite investors. The session’s volume of 1.2 million shares is significantly below the 3-month average. Meanwhile, insiders have sold a total of $1.2 million in shares over the last 90 days, and Rep. Ro Khanna (D, House) has made several small purchases in the stock. The 52-week tape also showed 12 fresh 52-week lows on September 11.

What To Watch

Chewy has no upcoming earnings report scheduled, but continued analyst coverage and potential follow-up from JPMorgan or Goldman Sachs may influence the stock’s direction. Investors should monitor the breadth of coverage and any further revisions to price targets or ratings.
