#stockprice

Karen's business stylings are just what we need. Who else can move the stock price 35%.

comments very appreciated...
and not forget layoffs where announced January ´26 .....

Why the price dropped again?

I swear, if even one of them — ideally some crypto-rich ba----d who’s already set for life — just quietly refuses the package, keeps vesting, and then unleashes he-l…Organizes the PSRs, starts a union drive, dumps every single Slack thread, every off-record call, every “alignment” deck, every real comp band doc, every actual burn numbers, every lie they told the board, every threat they made behind closed doors…Then spends the next three months or 3 years doing every single podcast that’ll have them — Bartlett, 20VC, Dwarkesh, Cerebral Valley, Piratul, the works — no fear, no filter, just pure napalm truth. Stock’s down $25+ before the first episode even drops. VCs panic-selling. Recruiting becomes radioactive. Customers start calling asking wtf is going on. All because one person decided the truth was worth more than another few million. I’m begging the universe: let there be one. Just one who doesn’t cash out and shut up. Please. Someone be that guy.

From 2023 to today, the stock has went from $5 to 1.60. They ain't even insider buying the stock at these lows. What is the board doing?

And the meter is still running........

Heard they went up as Cisco stock price drove employees crazy, and they are buying more protection and birth control pills from these stores. It happened to Juniper Networks employees 3 years back.

Verizon’s version of the Big Short. Layoffs for short term stock gains.

I guess the whole transition from employees to AI didn't really go as well as they had hoped, did it now?

Another article about CVS fraud. Paying out millions in a lawsuit AGAIN. When does it stop? As an employee, I want a ridiculously large bonus and raise in 2026. They shove fraud and abuse classes down our throats in the learning center yet here we are once again having to deal with the repercussions of this company being fraudulent. Somebody is not taking these classes. It's affecting our stock and I'm sure the bottom line numbers.

There is a rumor every month to bump up stock by 10%, all from an Asia analyst. The latest is rumor with Apple, the previous is rumor with AMD. None is real, all fake news.

Is Intel asking analyst to send out rumors?

Layoffs are always done to boost stock price. This leadership can't even do that right, as our stock went down instead. Talk about miscalculating.

Layoff’s are one of the main tools to boost a companies stock price.
Now that we are doing that with some more room to go, the price has risen 48% YTD.
Again, there’ll be another round or two of layoffs of that I’m sure.

So the question is, after its all said and done and the stock is at whatever price its at…..does it flatline, go up or does it go down. A stock price bump is easy to achieve with even the announcement of the word “layoff” much less when you actually do it. So now that we are there….what does it look like going forward?

Does it have legs to keep running or does it drop over time back to where it was 2-3 years ago?

SAP is currently facing a very unstable situation.

We are already witnessing this with HP and several other major companies.

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/25/hp-inc-shares-fall-as-company-says-it-will-cut-up-to-6000-employees.html

Despite significant layoffs and reductions in their operating costs, HP's stock has declined. Investors clearly perceive a lack of a solid plan to enhance profits, which has diminished shareholder confidence.

The SAP executive board is convinced that layoffs and dividends will elevate the stock price, but this approach will not work. Shareholders are not interested in quick returns through dividends; they want to see a comprehensive plan from SAP and increased investments rather than more layoffs. P23 has already demonstrated that layoffs are costly and do not significantly reduce operating expenses. The stock price began to drop sharply after the announcement of regular layoffs and superficial measures.

The only viable solution is to dismiss most of the board and develop a genuine strategy. However, supervisory board members who are attempting to hold the executive board accountable are already facing pressure and being urged to resign. Just as we witnessed half of the Betriebsrat depart during the recent layoffs, we can expect most supervisory board members to take a lucrative deal and exit.

Consequently, layoffs will persist. The stock price will continue to decline. The executive board will receive their largest bonuses ever, while leaving no budget for employee salary increases or bonuses. They will penalize employees because the workforce is too intimidated to advocate for themselves.

On the sage advice of this forum I have been buying substantial numbers of put options on Broadcom stock and as of today I’m officially ruined. Wiped out to the tune of half a million dollars. How do I tell my wife? How can I look my children in the eyes? I thought since you all seemed to know the ins and outs of VMware and all the tech stuff around it that you’d be smarter. Any future stock predictions that I can take the opposite side of to make some of this back?

There is absolutely nothing we can do to improve our stock price. It will just change in lock step with oil and natural gas prices.

Chevron has delivered the worst stock performance of the year among all major oil companies. It’s obvious that Wall Street simply isn’t buying the story. No matter how desperate the ELT appears when communicating their strategy, they clearly no longer understand what it actually takes to win. They think they’re delivering what Wall Street wants, and maybe they can convince themselves of that — but they can’t convince anyone else. They can’t even convince their own employees. And the result is exactly what we’re seeing today: the worst-performing stock of the year.

What's Happening ...to stock prices..>>>>>>its getting brutal----->0.9 * Skyworks stock price plus $32 equals q share buyout. they might even revise that, even lower, its like a bad luck charm. The Q can mess things up worse without even trying. Its just one big "Glitch"; but have no fear, Skyworks will " Fix The Glitch"

60 for 6, right? Well, we don’t get that any more. 59 for 6 from now on? Or maybe 50, 40, perhaps, 30? ;)

Down from $285. Bubble bursts ?

what is happening with the AI factories folks? Is the AI bubble unravelling or it is only Dell which is suffering? Thankfully I am away from the AI bubble which soon I expect to turn into doom and gloom. Time to park all your AI investments (incl. NVIDIA) into money market. Sell everything!

Sad that we are being compared to Intel.

Hope this is not, “Short term gain, at the price of long term gain.”

Anyone surprised? I'm not. This place is an inept joke. What are the worst management decisions you've seen this past year?

• Verizon lost 7,000 postpaid phone subscribers last quarter
• Added only 44,000 prepaid customers while AT&T added 400,000 and T-Mobile added 1 million
• Stock has stagnated - up just 8% over 3 years while S&P 500 rose nearly 70%

I really hate seeing the stock fall this hard because we all know what usually comes next when the numbers keep heading in the wrong direction. If things do not turn around soon, leadership will almost definitely start leaning on layoffs again just to make the balance sheets look better for a quarter or two. Mark my words, they always reach for the same playbook when the stock starts tanking.

I’m sure this isn’t a good sign about preventing future RIF

hold on, it's going to get rough

Is anyone else finding this damage control session to be hilarious? Yeah, let's blame the stock price on everyone else but TR

PS
Stock analysts now recommend buying TR. Duh, after 30% discount

Q3 results "Revenue of $1.96 billion , up 28.3 percent, or 27.0 percent in constant currency"...."Operating cash flow of $159 million, up $43 million year-over-year.
Free cash flow(1) of $131 million, up $24 million year-over-year."

These are all up, yet everything else is down. "Headwinds, inflation, uncertain government blah blah" stock is tanking, entire company is on yard sale duty, your coworkers are disappearing.

Why do these numbers not add up?

Skimming off the top? SLT stowing extra cash away? What is happening?

The massive cuts and all the cheerful announcements haven’t helped the stock much.

What kind of Accounting is Krabanaugh doing?

Does anyone normal think it's worth over 300 a share? I would not be surprised if he is cooking the books. Remember he said the quiet part out loud when he said he wanted to reach 300 at a F&O All hands earlier this year.

And if IBM is really valued that much, why all the RAs?

Hilarious - just think of all the SLT who have been building up their financial future on their stock awards.

As these were over $27 not too long ago, given a stock price of $2.70 today, their ‘stockpiles’ are only worth 10c on the $ now.

Oh, what a shame.

I worked for IOL for close to 20 years, and I hardly ever saw the stock price touch $50 CAD. It was a bad idea to invest in IOL, so sold all my IOL stocks in RRSP. Bad decision!! But who knew this will happen!!

Nothing like a layoff and getting g F’ed by the stock price at the same time. I’m sure there are some like Uncle Larry taking it to the bank.

In stock value in just three weeks, what’s going on in round rock

That is what chatGPT told me. Ansys never had a mass layoff but Synopsys did a few times in the last a few year.

The merge was good initially if you sold all of your Stocks a few days after the merge. Otherwise, you lost 30% minimal.

The AI market is ORCL’s golden goose and they are betting the farm on it. Diversification is the way you survive in tech. ORCL down 110.00 from 2025 high. That means oracle clown employees that thought it was the best thing since sliced bread lost tons the last 8-12 weeks. Good. That’s what you, esp mgmt, get for laying off so many good people. The worst run company in the world. You could be be lacking 90% of your brain and be a director at Oracle. Hahahagahag

Why is the stock sinking today? Are there any major negative news? Are we in danger?
