Peloton Has a Lot to Prove This Week
There's a lot on the plate of Peloton Interactive (NASDAQ: PTON) as it heads into this holiday-shortened trading week. One of this year's hottest stocks -- nearly tripling in 2020 and moving higher last week as the market in general took a step back -- reports fresh financials shortly after Thursday's close. It's going to be a strong quarter, but will it be strong enough to keep the upticks coming?
Peloton has become a market darling on the strength of its premium-priced platform. The four-figure treadmills and stationary bikes were gaining in popularity long before the pandemic kicked things up to an even higher demand level. With spinning class boutiques and full-service gyms unavailable during the early stages of the COVID-19 crisis the migration to in-home fitness began to accelerate. Peloton has been a major beneficiary of the shift to at-home workouts, but every quarterly report is going to be a big test for the hot stock.
