Roku Inc. shares tumbled Friday, with the streaming-video platform company the latest example of a one-time pandemic favorite to see a precipitous decline as investors look past an era where consumers are no longer stuck indoors.
The shares tumbled as much as 27%, their biggest one-day drop on record, in the wake of fourth-quarter results that missed expectations and an outlook that was seen as weak, prompting at least one analyst downgrade. The stock is now down more than 75% off a peak hit in July, trading at its lowest since June 2020.
