Why Beyond Meat Stock Jumped 6% on Tuesday

Beyond Meat (NASDAQ: BYND) shareholders beat a falling market on Tuesday. The plant-based meat product company's stock jumped 6% by noon ET compared with a 2% slump in the S&P 500. The surge only erased a small portion of recent losses, and shares remain down by over 55% so far in 2022.

The rally might reflect a judgment by some investors that these declines have created a more compelling value as Beyond Meat works to turn around its struggling business.

There have been some good reasons for the stock to fall in recent months. Beyond Meat's last few quarterly reports contained signs of weakening consumer demand for its plant-based products compared with earlier phases of the pandemic. Losses reached 92% of sales in the period that ended in early April, too.
