Tandem Diabetes, agilon health, GoodRx, Neogen, and Fortrea Stocks Trade Down, What You Need To Know
A number of stocks fell in the afternoon session after worries over worsening trade relations with China were triggered by critical comments from President Donald Trump.
The president's tone and the suggestion of canceling a meeting with President Xi caused a rapid sell-off in the market. The trade dispute flared up after China imposed export controls on rare earth minerals, which are critical components for high-tech manufacturing. The escalation of the trade war raises concerns about supply chain disruptions and increased costs for technology companies, which are heavily reliant on global trade, leading to a broad sell-off in the sector.

Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.04, which was in line with analyst consensus. Investors were likely encouraged by the company's full-year outlook. Neogen reconfirmed its full-year revenue guidance with a midpoint of $830 million, which was slightly above analyst expectations. Additionally, its full-year EBITDA guidance of $170 million at the midpoint also came in ahead of consensus estimates of $163.3 million, suggesting better-than-expected profitability for the year ahead.
