Wayfair Inc. shares fell by 5.03%, hitting a 5-day low as broader market indices also declined. The Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 were down 0.44% and 0.17%, respectively.
Despite a strong earnings report last quarter, concerns about slowing web traffic and consumer spending have weighed on investor sentiment. Analysts have expressed mixed views on the stock, with some downgrading their ratings amid these concerns.
The overall market sentiment remains cautious, and Wayfair's performance may continue to be influenced by broader economic factors and consumer behavior trends in the retail sector.
