Why Investors Hit the Brakes on BorgWarner's Stock This Week
Beating analysts' revenue estimates, (NYSE: BWA) reported a year-over-year increase in revenue of 8% for the first quarter of 2023. Investors, however, weren't impressed. Instead, they were more focused on the fact that the auto parts supplier failed to meet expectations on the bottom of the income statement. And that's not all. Some details in the company's 2023 forecast signaled a yellow flag to investors, leading to a sell-off in the stock.
As of the end of trading on Thursday, shares of BorgWarner are down 11.1% since the end of last Friday's session, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence.
