Few charts can explain the euphoria and panic of markets more than this chart of Zoom.
We've also used Zoom at least once by now to make a voice and video call. It was the darling after the Covid lockdowns because it was leading the way for remote work.
The before and after can be easily seen just by looking at the chart. It was up 900% in a brief period of time!
Then... it dropped 90%.
The euphoria of remote work, fast growth, and easy money.
Followed by the return to normalcy and a crash of its price.
The question now is as follows: at what point is Zoom a value play? It remains the leader of video conferencing and still has a large, global customer base. They surely need to innovate and create more solutions.
Time will tell.
I have no position. Just watching the chart.
I do think a swing trade could set up as it drops even more. A quick rebound appears possible. Zoom would be foolish not to cut costs and attempt to buy some shares back down here.
Well done, Zoom is like Commodore Computers... Just waiting for competition.

Thanks for this view. As you have shown it, this chart captures well the past several years since the pandemic and the Fed's massive response began to affect markets. It's also perhaps the archetypal chart to show how boom and busts of stocks / markets unfold, except it's compressed into such a short time frame. Well done
