The company also missed expectations on both next-quarter revenue and EPS guidance. The downturn was fueled by a 16% drop in camera sell-through as the company recorded a 34% slump in retail channel sales, which made up 74% of total revenue.

In investing and life, it's very easy to get tunnel vision – doing what works and staying in your comfort zone. I wanted to attend the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to shake myself out of this pattern. Here are my thoughts from this event.
GoPro share price crashed by 68% in 2024 as growth has decelerated. The company is facing substantial competition as demand wanes. The stock has plunged to a record low as management embarks on cost cuts.
Over the last six months, GoPro’s shares have sunk to $1.10, producing a disappointing 19.7% loss - a stark contrast to the S&P 500’s 6% gain. This might have investors contemplating their next move.
