Why Quidel Stock Got Crushed on Monday

Shares of Quidel (NASDAQ: QDEL) fell on Monday, continuing declines from last week. It seems the market was selling companies like Quidel that have grown revenue because of the COVID-19 pandemic. That might explain why the stock fell 10% today.

Quidel fell last week after reporting full-year 2020 results. Counterintuitive to the drop, the company's results were quite good. Revenue in 2020 rose to $1.66 billion, up 211% from revenue in 2019. Its rapid tests for COVID-19 obviously were in high demand for much of the year, leading to the outsize growth.
