Bloom Energy Shares Plunge Following Spectacular Rally

Bloom Energy US0937121079

Bloom Energy’s stock experienced a dramatic decline, plummeting more than 20% to close near $110. This severe selloff interrupted one of the year’s most remarkable equity performances, which had previously surged over 500%. The correction occurred without any specific negative news, highlighting the vulnerability of high-flying growth stocks when market sentiment shifts.

The sudden downturn appears driven primarily by stretched valuation metrics, despite the company’s strong operational performance. Market analysts had flagged several concerning indicators:

• A price-to-sales multiple of 16 times
• A price-to-earnings ratio exceeding 1,500
• Bank of America analysts suggesting potential downside of up to 80%
