Why Shares of Blue Apron Holdings Fell 21% in August
Shares of Blue Apron Holdings (NYSE: APRN) tumbled 20.7% in August, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence, after the company reported a net income loss of $31.6 million in the second quarter and saw its customer base fall by 9% sequentially. Additionally, investors continued to be spooked by Amazon.com's (NASDAQ: AMZN) encroachment into Blue Apron's space.
