Why Zumiez (ZUMZ) Stock Is Falling Today
Shares of clothing and footwear retailer Zumiez (NASDAQ:ZUMZ) fell 7.9% in the afternoon session after the company reported mixed first quarter 2025 results: its EBITDA missed and its EPS guidance for next quarter fell short of Wall Street's estimates. On the other hand, Zumiez narrowly topped analysts' revenue expectations and its revenue guidance for next quarter slightly exceeded Wall Street's estimates. Still, this was a softer quarter. The shares closed the day at $11.54, down 10.3% from previous close. The stock market overreacts to news, and big price drops can present good opportunities to buy high-quality stocks. Is now the time to buy Zumiez? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Zumiez's shares are extremely volatile and have had 32 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today's move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business. The previous big move we wrote about was 10 days ago when the stock gained 5.8% on the news that the major indices rebounded (Nasdaq +2.0%, S&P 500 +2.0%) as President Trump postponed the planned 50% tariff on European Union imports, shifting the start date to July 9, 2025. Companies with substantial business ties to Europe likely had some relief as the delay reduced near-term cost pressures and preserved cross-border demand. Zumiez is down 39% since the beginning of the year, and at $11.58 per share, it is trading 60.2% below its 52-week high of $29.11 from August 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Zumiez's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $383.70. Unless you've been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.

Trump's new drone orders aim to counter threats while encouraging flying cars and supersonic flights
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump wants to counter the threats drones pose to national security under new rules released Friday, while also aiming to make it easier for Americans to fly faster than the speed of sound and expedite the development of the flying cars of the future. The three executive orders will encourage the Federal Aviation Administration to expedite rules to allow companies to use drones beyond their operators' line of sight, while also imposing restrictions meant to help protect against terrorism, espionage and public safety threats.
