Recent discussions on X regarding Lululemon Athletica (LULU) have been fueled by the stock's dramatic decline, with some posts noting a staggering drop of over 65% since its peak in late 2023. Many users are debating the reasons behind the fall, pointing to weakening comparable sales in the Americas, rising competition from brands like Alo and Vuori, and a perceived shift in consumer preferences away from Lululemon's core offerings. The tone on the platform often reflects frustration, with some questioning whether this marks a structural shift in the athleisure market.
However, not all chatter is negative, as a recent upgrade by a major financial institution to a Neutral rating with a modest price target has sparked cautious optimism among some participants. Posts highlight potential upside from strategic partnerships and a belief that much of the bad news may already be priced into the stock after such a steep decline. The conversation remains polarized, with ongoing speculation about whether the company can reclaim its former momentum.
