Why Palo Alto Networks Stock Plummeted This Week
Even after a double-digit sell-off this week, Palo Alto stock is still up more than 80% in 2026.
Overview
Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW) stock has been hot this year, but it took a step back this week. The company's share price declined 10.3% across the stretch of trading, which saw the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite rise 0.3% and 0.2%, respectively.
After the market closed on Tuesday, Palo Alto published results for the fourth quarter of its 2026 fiscal year -- which ended July 31. The cybersecurity stock sold off after the report, even though the company posted sales and earnings beats and strong forward guidance.
