"Peloton's Stock Plummets Amid Sales Decline Warning"

Peloton's shares plummeted nearly 25% after the company warned of a sales decline and cut back its revenue forecast, citing softer-than-expected sales of its high-end equipment like stationary bikes and treadmills. The at-home exercise boom during the pandemic has waned as users return to gyms, leading to a 6% drop in sales to $743.6m in the last quarter. The company expects revenue to fall by about 5% in the current quarter and has downgraded its full-year revenue guidance. Despite challenges, Peloton's CEO remains optimistic about improving performance and notes strong sales growth over the holiday period, as well as encouraging demand for its Tread+ treadmill.
