Shares of luxury electric car manufacturer Lucid (NASDAQ:LCID) fell 4.3% in the afternoon session after the company launched its first certified pre-owned vehicle program, "Lucid Recharged," but investor focus remained on broader financial concerns. The new program aimed to offer customers more choice with manufacturer-backed standards. However, the announcement did not impress investors, who seemed more concerned with the electric vehicle maker's underlying financial health. The move followed a recent downgrade from Morgan Stanley to "Underweight," which cited worries that the company might not achieve profitability until 2028. Additionally, Lucid previously adjusted its 2025 production guidance downward.
Shares of real estate data provider CoStar Group (NASDAQ:CSGP) fell 7.8% in the afternoon session after reports surfaced that Google was testing a new ad format that placed homes-for-sale listings directly at the top of its search results, sparking investor concern. The test, which appeared in limited markets on mobile devices, positioned the search giant as a potential direct competitor to online property portals. This development threatened a core source of traffic and leads for companies like CoStar, which owns Homes.com, and rival Zillow, whose shares also fell sharply. Investors were concerned because Google's move could bypass the established real estate platforms. Analysts from Goldman Sachs viewed the development as a "long-term risk" for the industry, even though the immediate impact might be limited since much of the traffic to real estate sites is direct.
Shares of technology real estate company Offerpad (NYSE:OPAD)
fell 9.6% in the afternoon session after fears of increased competition in the online real estate sector increased as Google started testing full home ads in its search results. The move by the tech giant signaled a deeper push into the home listings business, creating a potential threat for existing real estate sites. This news sent ripples across the industry, with shares of Zillow Group, a leading real estate website, tumbling over 10%. The concerns were not isolated, as other companies with home listing platforms, such as CoStar and Rocket Companies, also saw their stocks lose ground. Offerpad's drop was part of this broader sector-wide sell-off as investors reacted to the prospect of a powerful new competitor entering the market.
Shares of satellite communications provider Globalstar (NASDAQ:GSAT) fell 4.6% in the afternoon session after the stock fell in a technical move as it gave back some of its strong recent gains. The decline followed a period where the stock had risen over 20% in the previous two weeks, which may have prompted some investors to take profits. According to technical analysis, a sell signal was issued from a pivot point on a previous trading day. The stock was also considered to be in an overbought condition, which can sometimes signal a good selling opportunity for short-term traders. With no major company news released, the day's move appeared to be driven by these technical factors rather than a change in the company's fundamental outlook.
Shares of ride sharing service Lyft (NASDAQ: LYFT)
fell 6.3% in the afternoon session after competitor Tesla began testing its driverless cars without safety monitors. The development signaled a major step forward in autonomous vehicle technology, sparking concerns among investors about the long-term competitive landscape for rideshare companies. The move by Tesla was seen as a direct threat to the current rideshare business model. An analyst from Wedbush, Scott Devitt, noted that both Tesla and Waymo were increasing their autonomous vehicle efforts, which threatened services like Lyft. This news led investors to believe that a future with driverless ride-hailing services was getting closer, potentially disrupting the industry.
