Stock Market Movers: RH Soars, Reddit Stumbles After Insider Selling, AMC Prepares Share Sale

The stock market saw a mixed bag of performances today, with some companies soaring on positive developments and others taking a tumble on concerning news. Here's a closer look at some of the day's biggest movers:

 

RH (Up 17.26%)

Luxury furniture retailer RH defied expectations today, surging over 17% after issuing a strong full-year forecast for both demand and revenue growth. This positive outlook helped investors look past the company's disappointing fourth-quarter earnings report.

 

Estee Lauder (Up 6.28%)

Cosmetics giant Estee Lauder also enjoyed a positive day, with its shares jumping over 6% after Bank of America upgraded them to "buy" from "neutral." The bank cited the company's improving profitability, new product launches, and growing presence in the prestige beauty sector as key reasons for the upgrade.

 

Reddit (Down 14.6%)

Social media darling Reddit took a hit today, with its shares dropping over 14%. This decline followed the news that CEO Steve Huffman and COO Jennifer Wong both sold significant portions of their shares. However, it's important to note that Reddit's stock has still soared significantly since its debut on the New York Stock Exchange just a week ago.

 

Chemours (Down 9.07%)

Chemical company Chemours found itself in hot water today, with its stock price falling over 9%. This drop came after the company announced it was cooperating with regulators and U.S. attorneys regarding an internal audit that uncovered manipulated cash flows by executives in an attempt to meet bonus targets.

 

Snowflake (Up 0.97%)

Cloud data provider Snowflake experienced a modest gain today, edging up nearly 1%. This increase came a day after CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy disclosed a significant personal purchase of company shares, signaling his confidence in the company's future.

 

AMC Entertainment (Down 14.29%)

Movie theater chain AMC Entertainment saw its stock price decline over 14% today. This drop followed the announcement that the company plans to sell $250 million worth of new shares. Investors may be concerned that this dilution could decrease the value of existing shares.

 

Verint Systems (Up 6.63%)

Customer engagement solutions provider Verint Systems emerged as a winner today, with its shares climbing over 6%. This positive performance came after the company surpassed analyst expectations for both earnings per share and revenue in its fourth quarter.

 

TD Synnex (Down 2.5%)

IT company TD Synnex experienced a slight decline in its stock price today, dropping around 2.5%. This decrease followed the company's announcement of a secondary public offering of shares, which may have raised concerns about dilution among investors.

 

MillerKnoll (Down 18.9%)

Furniture company MillerKnoll had a rough day, with its stock price plummeting over 18%. This significant drop came after the company reported a disappointing fiscal third-quarter revenue miss and issued guidance that fell short of analyst expectations. MillerKnoll cited sluggish demand patterns due to high interest rates, geopolitical concerns, and a weak U.S. housing market as reasons for its struggles.

 

Braze (Down 12.42%)

Consumer engagement platform Braze also had a disappointing day, with its shares sinking over 12%. This decline followed the company's release of underwhelming guidance for its first quarter and full year. Braze anticipates larger losses than analysts had predicted.
