Pool Corp: Why is this Warren Buffett-backed stock down 53%?
Pool Corp's stock has plummeted 53% from its peak this year, erasing $16 billion in value, despite being a Warren Buffett-backed company. The decline is attributed to a combination of decreasing annual revenue since 2022, reduced profitability, high inventory levels, and a challenging economic environment with elevated inflation. Analysts have mixed opinions, with some upgrading to "buy" and others downgrading to "market perform," and the stock chart suggests a continued downward trend.
