“Tanked”

Checks graph

19% is a hit but I wouldn’t call it tanked.

Some stocks are just volatile. Here is the full history:

Whenever I see social media say something dropped/jumped, I do the same thing as you - I visit the portfolio and take a birds eye view.

I still think about the one time redditors celebrated a company's stock dropping by 90% over the last day.

But what the picture left out was how the company was climbing by 1000% in a week before dropping.

A drop this severe is tanking. Even with a stock history like the one from Ubisoft.

WTF you think happened in 2020? No one could leave their house, so video game went gang busters.

I worked at a video game retailer then, and it was the busiest we've ever been.
