Wayfair Stock Jumps From Bottom

Wayfair Stock Gained 339% From Its Bottom

Only a couple of stocks were hit as severely as Wayfair after the end of the pandemic. But the Wayfair stock trended during the start of the pandemic.

At the start, the e-commerce sales jumped as more people moved into online shopping compared to visiting the stores. But when the pandemic ended, the trend of online shopping returned to its pre-pandemic levels.

Wayfair Reports Solid Revenue Growth

However, Wayfair was not ready for the big change as it had overinvested in an economy that no longer required it. Ever since then, Wayfair has never managed to reach its peak again.

Today, the Wayfair stock has once again redeemed itself and made a stellar comeback from historic lows. The Wayfair stock has also managed to shake off the tariff concerns, as the recent earnings report was pretty solid.

Overall, it seems that Wayfair stock has finally found its way back as the core business is now also booming once again. For starters, the Q1 earnings report showed $2.7 billion in revenue, which was very good for Wayfair.

Also, the adjusted EPS of Wayfair was $0.10, which is an improvement from a loss of $0.32. So, it's safe to say that Wayfair has really turned things around in a short span of time.

The results from Q2 were also strong, as they showed better profitability and a massive growth in revenue. In fact, the revenue numbers were way ahead of the forecasts and showed the strong position of Wayfair.

Now, if we look at the downsides, it's a big reality that the housing market is very sluggish. This automatically makes things difficult for companies like Wayfair, which operate in the home furnishing sector.

However, experts believe that the Fed is gradually lowering the rates, and this will benefit the Wayfair stock in the long term.

Right now, the forward P/E of the Wayfair stock is more than 40. So, this is a sign that the recovery rally in Wayfair stock has run its course.
