Lululemon Athletica (LULU) Plots Comeback After Stock Crashes 60% in 2025
Lululemon Athletica (LULU), once a darling of growth investors, has become one of the S&P 500's worst performers in 2025. Shares have plummeted nearly 60% year-to-date, with a single-day drop of 20% following a grim earnings report and guidance cut. The stock now trades more than 50% below its 52-week high of $423.32.
Beneath the surface, however, fundamentals suggest potential for recovery. The company retains strong profitability, a robust balance sheet, and a growing international footprint. Buybacks and an attractive valuation add to the case for a long-term turnaround, even as U.S. market challenges and tariff pressures weigh on near-term performance.
