Peloton Share Price in a Slump As Company’s Performance Faces Headwinds

    Summary:
  • The Peloton share price continues its free fall after the company provides guidance that indicates slower growth in the 3rd quarter.

Peloton has opened 0.97% lower and continues to struggle as the stock looks to be on its way to a fourth straight losing session. The losses come as investors sell the stock on news that the company’s earnings projections are far short of analysts’ estimates. The company recently slashed the price of its Peloton Bike, the second time in 2021 it has done this. 

The selloff impacting the Peloton (PTON) share price was triggered by news of a subpoena by the Justice Department and Department of Homeland Security over the injuries caused by its treadmills, which have since been recalled. 

The Peloton share price saw phenomenal growth in 2020 and Q1 2021, as a locked-down populace turned to fitness machines to keep fit. 

Peloton Share Price Forecast

A bounce off 99.51, a support level currently facing a challenge from bears, could trigger a return towards 109.43, with 120.16 and 127.67 serving as the upside targets. 

On the flip side, a decline below the 99.51 support allows the 93.61 price mark to come into the mix as the next target. 79.93 becomes an additional target to the downside if the decline continues.
