StockTwits Data Paints Bleak Picture For GoPro

Typically, a stock that has declined as much as GoPro Inc GPRO’s stock has will inspire a swing in value-driven or contrarian bullish sentiment in the market. However, as GoPro’s stock dips into the single digits, down more than 80 percent in the past year, the latest data from StockTwits shows that there is little evidence of a contrarian bounce in the near future.

Recent bearish sentiment in GoPro on StockTwits peaked on January 15 when 54 percent of messages were bearish. Following the bearish sentiment peak, the share price continued to fall another 13.3 percent in recent weeks. To make matters worse, StockTwits has recorded yet another pickup in bearish sentiment already in early February.

One thing is for certain: it seems like Wall Street’s sentiment for GoPro could not get much worse.

GoPro was one of many stocks, including Twitter Inc TWTR, Fitbit Inc FIT, Groupon Inc GRPN and Zynga Inc ZYNG that Global Equities Research analyst Trip Chowdhry calls “total garbage” in terms of long-term value for investors.

Even former GoPro bulls Dougherty & Co and Sterne Agee CRT finally threw in the towel this week and downgraded the stock to Neutral.
