Downside

  • PFSA –43.5% (violent reversal after Tuesday’s +507% squeeze; >200K premarket shares and no new fundamental catalyst supporting the prior spike)
  • WYFI –24.0% ($250M convertible-senior-notes offering, with an additional purchaser option, raises dilution/financing-overhang concerns)

  • ESS –9.0% (abnormally large isolated REIT move; no new material company filing or fundamental catalyst identified this morning)
  • TJX –3.5% (Q2 headline beat and FY EPS raised, but Marmaxx comps were below management expectations and the FY comp outlook was not raised; tariff refunds also boosted reported profitability)
