On August 19, Carvana Co. rose 4.62% in regular trading, trading at 68.32 USD/share, with turnover of $74.31 million, extending a recovery pattern that began in after-hours and pre-market sessions.
The stock had previously plunged approximately 13% this week after reports that investor Mark Walter faces a federal investigation, raising concerns he may liquidate his stake in the company. Additionally, two directors sold a combined total of over 44,000 shares last week, with director Ira Platt disposing of 30,000 shares and director Danforth Quayle disposing of 14,525 shares according to SEC filings.
Following the sharp sell-off, a technical oversold rebound has emerged. However, multiple institutions have recently lowered their price targets — BNP Paribas cut to $69, while Evercore ISI and Bank of America both reduced targets to $75. The current stock price remains near or below these revised targets, and trading volume has contracted relative to the sell-off period, suggesting the sustainability of the recovery remains uncertain.
